UK/INTERNATIONAL. Leading cruise retailer Harding+ has renewed its support as a Platinum Partner for the retail sessions at Seatrade Cruise Global 2026.
The Retail Days – a series of conference sessions dedicated to retail at sea – take place at Miami Beach Convention Center on 14-15 April, co-organised by The Moodie Davitt Report. Seatrade Cruise Global is the premier annual gathering of the cruise industry worldwide and runs from 13-16 April.
This is the third year of retail-related programming at Seatrade Cruise Global, with previous events in 2024 and 2025 well attended by cruiselines, concessionaires and brand owners. Harding+ was also a Platinum Partner last year.
The attention to onboard retail at Seatrade reflects the importance of the channel to cruiseline revenues and its role in enhancing the guest experience.
Harding+ CEO Chris Matthews said, “Retail is a core part of the guest journey – it needs to feel like a seamless extension of the voyage, not an add-on. Seatrade Cruise Global is where the conversations shaping the industry’s future take place, and we’re delighted to return as a Platinum Partner.
“We look forward to working alongside both long-standing and emerging voices across the industry to inspire new thinking and showcase the innovation Harding+ is delivering to elevate the guest experience.
“Our ambition is clear: to be the partner that tests, trials and proves what’s possible at sea – first. The Retail Days provide an ideal forum to demonstrate how this approach can unlock meaningful value for guests, cruiselines and brand partners across the wider cruise ecosystem.”
