Only recently have people begun to recognize that working with suppliers is just as important as listening to customers. –Yale Professor, Writer & Strategist Barry Nalebuff
Famous businessman and author Stephen Covey suggested there are only two roles in organizations—customers and suppliers—and, as such, the essence of good business is the quality of the relationship between the two. To display your best, it’s wise to present a strong and unified message at the outset. If you’re a vendor supplying your wares to local and/or global businesses, you have to know your product—and your customer—inside and out.
Consider booking The Breakroom, one of the top meeting rental spaces in Bend. This venue is perfect for vendor gatherings, new product displays, and more. The benefits are clear:
Stronger Relationships
You must have a supplier relationship of constant improvement. –American Composer & Economist W. Edwards Deming
For instance, consider the missed opportunities of companies like Blockbuster and Excite. Blockbuster, for example, passed on teaming up with Netflix, while Excite ignored Google’s emerging technology. Similarly, Sears struggled due to its slow response to e-commerce. Today, businesses must embrace innovation and collaboration. Bring your key players together to build a lasting legacy.

Better Products
Build a better mousetrap, and the world will beat a path to your door. –Essayist & Philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson
Therefore, innovating exciting new products is crucial in business. If you have a new product to launch, it requires exposure, time, and constructive feedback to perfect it. At The Breakroom, we’ve hosted numerous vendor events showcasing fantastic new products. Let us help you create an unforgettable launch experience where you can display your best!

Deeper Problem-Solving
More and more companies are reaching out to their suppliers and contractors to work jointly on issues of sustainability, environmental responsibility, ethics, and compliance. –Branding Expert Simon Mainwaring
Increasingly, companies are collaborating with suppliers to tackle sustainability, environmental responsibility, and ethics. According to The Roundup, sustainable products have grown 2.7 times faster than non-sustainable ones. Companies must find cost-effective and ethical solutions. Together, suppliers and consumers can create mutually beneficial innovations. If your business seeks to excel in this area, collaborating is the best approach.

In summary, the Breakroom stands out as one of the few meeting rental spaces in Bend. Our venue provides the ideal environment for vendors to address their toughest challenges, strengthen relationships, and showcase a wide array of products.
