There are just a few weeks left until the Scottish Grocers’ Federation’s (SGF’s) special Scottish Parliament Election Hustings on 23 April 2026 from 3pm – 4pm at the Doubletree by Hilton, Edinburgh Airport.
The Hustings will take place after the SGF Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) Conference and will be chaired by Andy Maciver, Director of strategic communications from Message Matters.
Panellists from Scotland’s six largest political parties are set to participate in what promises to be a highly informative event.
The SGF’s updated manifesto highlights the actions needed to support local businesses, tackle retail crime, reduce regulatory pressures, and help the sector continue serving communities across Scotland. The group encourages all attendees to review the manifesto to better understand the issues being raised with political parties and the commitments being sought on behalf of the convenience industry.
