Exhibitor space for the 2015 NMBS Exhibition has sold out in record-breaking time, as just three weeks after being made available to building industry suppliers, all 290 stands and vehicle space for next year’s show have been taken.
“Since its introduction almost 50 years ago, the NMBS Exhibition has gone from strength to strength,” said Chris Hayward, managing director at NMBS. “The 2014 Exhibition was arguably our best to date with more exhibitors, more independent merchants attending and more deals done on the day than ever before.
“Against this backdrop, we fully envisaged demand for exhibitor space for the 2015 Exhibition to be high, but the speed with which all of the event’s stands have sold out has surpassed even our best expectations.”
The 2015 NMBS Exhibition will again take place at the RICOH Arena. This purpose-built venue is located just 800 yards from the UK’s motorway network, ensuring accessibility.
As in 2014, the event will also take place earlier in the year – on Thursday 16 April 2015, enabling NMBS members and suppliers to maximise a greater range of deals, including those relating to more seasonal product areas like landscaping.
As ever, the show will also be preceded by the NMBS Gala Dinner on the evening before, which offers NMBS members and suppliers the chance to mix business and pleasure, and enjoy superb networking opportunities
Mr Hayward added: “The fact that the 2015 NMBS Exhibition has sold out so quickly is a good indication of what our members and suppliers alike can expect of next year’s show. It promises to be bigger, better and more commercially beneficial. We may be six months away but it seems the buzz is building already.”
