When you’re a Sydney-based brand heading to Melbourne for a tradeshow, the logistics can feel overwhelming: stock, staff, schedules, display solutions and, of course, making your products look incredible. For The Hunted Co, a much-loved name in the fashion and accessories space, this balancing act used to be a challenge until they discovered the simplicity and peace of mind that comes with display hire in Melbourne.
We’ve had the pleasure of working with The Hunted Co for several years now, providing apparel display furniture for hire that helps them showcase their products beautifully. During the latest visit to Melbourne, I went to visit their showroom to see our hire products in action and chat about why hiring display furniture has become an essential part of their tradeshow strategy, and what makes Melbourne events so special for them.
What were you looking for in a display solution before finding us?
For The Hunted Co, minimalism was key. Their products, bags and apparel, speak volumes on their own, so they needed display solutions that complemented their pieces without stealing the spotlight.
What about the timber look appealed to your brand aesthetic?
Our timber display stands and clothing racks are a popular choice because they add warmth while keeping the focus on the products. For The Hunted Co, this natural look perfectly aligned with their brand aesthetic.
Why did you choose to hire rather than bring your own display?
This is why furniture hire for tradeshows, expos, markets makes so much sense, especially for interstate brands. No need to pack extra cases or even organise a freight truck, not to mention finding the tools and time to set everything up after a long trip. Reduce stress and still have a professional, polished display ready to go when you arrive.
How did hiring the displays impact your workflow on event week?
That peace of mind is exactly why exhibition display hire is such a game-changer. Knowing that the displays will arrive on time, be professionally installed, and look perfect from the moment the doors open, eliminates some of the stress out of event week. For The Hunted Co, this means more than just convenience, it directly impacts productivity and energy, so the team can focus on buyers, styling, sales and actually embrace the excitement of the week.
What’s been the biggest benefit of hiring our display units for your bi-yearly showings?
The biggest advantage of hiring display solutions for tradeshows is the sheer simplicity and reliability it brings to event preparation. Our bump-in and bump-out service means no tools, no stress, and no last-minute dramas, just a complete set up space, ready when you need it.
What do you love most about doing tradeshows in different cities?
Melbourne is full of energy and inspiration, whether it’s exploring Melbourne’s iconic laneways, trying out trendy new restaurants, or simply enjoying a morning coffee in a different suburb.
Every trip to Melbourne brings new opportunities to connect with like-minded brands, engage with loyal customers, and build relationships that go beyond the showroom floor. These interactions often lead to fresh ideas, collaborations, and valuable insights that can shape the future of the business.
What’s your go-to show day ritual?
Tradeshow days are long and full-on, but with the right attitude and a great team by your side, the early mornings, back-to-back appointments, and constant energy feel completely manageable.
When everything is planned and executed well, you get to immerse yourself in the best parts of the experience - the rituals, the hospitality, and those small personal touches that make buyers feel welcome.
Why Display Hire Makes All the Difference
By hiring displays instead of hauling their own, The Hunted Co has turned what could be a logistical nightmare into a stress-free system. With neutral, natural timber pieces that let their products shine and a complete bump-in/bump-out service, they’re free to enjoy the creativity, the connections, and yes, even the Melbourne foodie scene.
