Thousands of subpostmasters from across the UK will gather at the NEC in Birmingham this weekend to discover new ways to increase the viability of their post offices.

The exhibition called Subpostmaster 2007, organised by The National Federation of SubPostmasters (NFSP), will see more than 150 exhibitors display exciting new products aimed at boosting the income of subpostmasters.

George Thomson, General Secretary of the NFSP, said: “As up to 2,500 post offices are closed across the UK, it is vital that subpostmasters left in the network are given every opportunity to generate new income.

“It is up to everyone to make sure that the future of the Post Office network is sustainable and viable. For subpostmasters this means making sure that all commercial opportunities are explored and the exhibition will highlight hundreds of superb retail ideas.”

Products ranging from DVD hire and flowers to mobile phones and security systems will be on show at the exhibition, with 50% of exhibitors taking part in the event for the first time.

Post Office Ltd (POL) will also have a stand at the event, and POL staff are expected to talk about new products and services.

Key seminars will be held during the exhibition including a Q&A session with senior members of the NFSP tackling all issues facing the Post Office network.

The event is being held at the NEC in Birmingham on October 20 and 21. Doors open at 10am
