Home APG Expo – call to distributors
Trade Only, the leading marketing and information solutions provider for the Promotional Product Industry has called on distributor companies to take advantage of the shows to bring as many staff as possible.
Nigel Bailey, Event Director at Trade Only said “We know from feedback and talking to distributors in general that often people that are crucial to the operation of the business and responsible for sales, specification and ordering of products do not get the chance to visit exhibitions.
Face to face contact between suppliers and distributors is so important and we know that this can only benefit all concerned. APG expo shows are a great opportunity for this to happen. Therefore we urge companies to consider bringing key staff to the shows and take full advantage of their more local and less formal nature.”
The shows are timed in early September at the start of the important final quarter sales period and the run-up to Christmas. Organisers have reported that already more than 60 exhibitors have signed up and pre-registration is running ahead of 2009 figures.
Gail Kilcoyne, Exhibition Manager commented “The whole concept of APG is exciting. Exhibitors have more time to talk in depth to visitors at these shows. Early September is a key time of the year for exhibitors and suppliers to come together”.
