Press Releases

Pedlars are in the news, but the news is not all good for pedlars!
To hear slander and negative propaganda about pedlars you only need google pedlars or visit the websites of powerful lobby groups to see just how the media has been misled with a steady trickle of lies – for example try NABMA, & LGA. Then visit the newspaper articles reporting the same mis-information.
Pedlars have compiled some articles to expose what’s going on – please spread the alternative view.
If you have a news item that pedlars should be aware of please contact us.
If you have experience as a pedlar of an incident with regulators please contact us
