SayPro’s goal for the quarter is to expand its retail footprint by securing at least two new retail partnerships per exhibition event. By strategically leveraging exhibitions as platforms for partnership-building, SayPro aims to enhance its distribution channels and increase its reach to a broader customer base. To achieve this target, SayPro will implement specific strategies to identify, engage, and convert potential retail partners into long-term business relationships.

1. Objective: Secure at Least Two New Retail Partnerships per Event
