How to become a SARCDA Trade Buyer

SARCDA is strictly a trade show, therefore:

• All buyers need to register and submit company documents for verification. This is a once-off process.
• All buyers are required to register and make payment online. No registrations or payments accepted at the exhibition.
• Registration is subject to approval by the SARCDA vetting team.

  What are the registration procedures and cost of becoming a SARCDA Buyer?

• Trade buyers should apply to register online via the SARCDA website.
• Have digital copies or your company documents (VAT or company registration document) on hand, as one of these has to be uploaded for verification
• Once you have applied and submitted your company documents, the SARCDA team will verify your documents. If your application is successful, you will receive an email confirming that you are a verified trade buyer, with info on how to log into your Buyer Profile, and a link for making your non-refundable payment of  R250.00
• On receipt of payment, a confirmation document with a QR Code will be emailed to you. Print the QR Code out, and bring it to the exhibition for scanning at the show entrance.
• No members of the public will be allowed access to the expo. Only registered, verified trade buyers will be granted access.
• No cash/cards will be accepted onsite for registrations. Online system only.

  Who may register as a SARCDA Buyer?

• Any individual retail buyer working in the retail Gift, Fashion, Toy Décor & Design industries can register as a SARCDA Buyer provided that he/she can supply their company VAT document and/or Company registration document for verification.

  I have already registered but need to add new staff members who want to attend the show. What should I do?

• Registration is per Buyer and not per Company. Each new buyer must register online, and pay a once off non-refundable registration fee of  R250.00 

  My company is very small and I am not VAT registered. How do I gain access to the show?

• You will need some proof that you work at, or are the owner of, a bona-fide company:- company registration document, a letter from your accountant, a bank statement in the company name or some proof will be required.
