NABMA invites members: “Review and renew your market’s commitment to the Real Deal campaign”
NABMA is delighted to announce a celebration of its long-standing partnership with Real Deal, featuring a week of information, case studies, and discussions from 14 to 18 July.
During the week, we hope you will join us for the events – to review your membership and, by the end of the week, renew your market’s commitment to the campaign.
Each day will showcase why Real Deal is—and has been—so important to the market industry since the National Markets Group was established in 2008 to provide a forum for a national, co-ordinated, cross-sector approach to tackling the trade in counterfeit goods at markets and car boot fairs. NABMA has been a constant and active participant in promoting Real Deal to our membership.
As a reminder, the Real Deal campaign is a cross-sector partnership initiative bringing together local authority trading standards services, market operators and traders, industry groups, and copyright and trademark owners. All are united in their commitment to tackling this problem. It is a preventative campaign focused on a national markets charter and provides guidance, information, and promotional support to market operators and trading standards to help participating markets stay fake-free.
Our week of celebration will bring together NABMA, Real Deal, and the National Markets Group for IP Protection.
During the week, we will explore:
- What Real Deal is and who it partners with.
- Whether you are already signed up—and if not, why your market should join the campaign.
- Case studies of Real Deal in action.
The main event will be on Thursday 17 July, with a free online session:
“Real Deal and its Importance to Your Market and Your Community.”
We will provide an overview of Real Deal, examples of counterfeit items, how to spot fakes, information on stolen goods in markets, toy safety hazards, and more. Booking will be available via the NABMA website.

At the end of the week, we simply ask:
Time to Renew?
Will you (re)sign up?
Can your market afford not to be part of this campaign to protect integrity, consumers, and community?
Join us for this week of celebration and activities—and sign up to be part of Real Deal.
