Where will your next £1m of international revenue come from?

For UK retailers looking for growth, international expansion is an obvious opportunity. Choosing where to invest (and making the numbers work) is much less obvious.

Europe? The US? Emerging eCommerce markets? Marketplaces or direct?

Then there’s the operational reality.

Every new market can bring different customer expectations, carrier requirements, customs rules, returns challenges and costs. What looks like an attractive growth opportunity can quickly become difficult to scale or difficult to make profitable.

And with further cross-border changes coming in 2027 and 2028, decisions being made now could have a very different commercial impact over the next two years.

On 30th September, ChannelX and GFS are bringing together the market opportunity and the operational reality of international growth.

Who Should Attend?

Built for eCommerce Directors, Heads of eCommerce, Logistics and Supply Chain leaders, Operations Directors and senior retail decision-makers with international growth on their agenda. Particularly if you’re asking:

  • Where should we expand next?
  • Can we do it profitably?
  • And is our current operation actually set up to support it?

If those questions are already coming up in your 2027 planning, this is a conversation worth joining.

In 40 minutes, we’ll tackle:

  • Where is the growth?
    The international markets and channels/marketplaces offering opportunities for UK retailers and where we see eCommerce shifting.
  • Which opportunities are actually worth pursuing?
    Market potential is only one part of the equation. We’ll look at the factors that can determine whether international expansion delivers incremental revenue or incremental cost for UK retailers.
  • What will change in 2027 and 2028?
    The cross-border and regulatory developments that could affect how UK retailers sell into international markets, and the decisions worth making before they land.
  • Can you expand without adding another carrier every time?
    Why international growth often creates a patchwork of carrier relationships, services and integrations – and how retailers can access the right services for different markets without continually adding operational overhead. We’ll look at why flexibility matters when you’re operating across multiple markets, and how to avoid being locked into a delivery set-up that can’t adapt.

The Total Supply Chain Summit is a highly-targeted event that brings those working in the Supply Chain & Logistics Industry together with leading solution providers, for focused one-to-one meetings.

One of the key advantages of attending is that it allows buyers to inform the organisers about the challenges they are facing in sourcing and managing supplier contracts, as well as any new projects they are developing. By understanding these current buyer trends, we can curate a schedule, matching the right suppliers and educational seminars specially to the buyers’ individual needs, increasing the likelihood of productive discussions and valuable connections.

Delivery and Logistics Leaders Summits are private, invite-only, in person events for selected senior leaders, decision-makers and budget-holders within the delivery and logistics industry.

We have shaken up the typical industry event format and focused on creating value for our audience by facilitating meaningful connections through engaging talks, roundtables and 1-2-1 meetings, engaging cross-industry discussions, and high-level networking.

The event will give you the opportunity to network with senior peers in a relaxed, private environment, hear and learn from the most influential members of the logistics community, and provide a platform to engage in pre-qualified meetings with leading solution providers.
