I allocate an entire day out of my schedule to go
to the Show, so I can see everything that is new for
EHN November
our industry. It’s easy to get to the Ricoh Arena by
flying direct from Edinburgh to Birmingham and then
EHN December
taking the train to Coventry. I have attended both
previous Shows, and they have been invaluable in
EHN January
highlighting equipment to enhance our fleet. 1
We chiefly serve small builders and local
tradesmen, supplying compact plant like JCB minis,
Thwaites dumpers, Youngman’s Boss towers, and
power tools from companies like Hilti, DeWalt and
2
John Cranston,
Makita, and it will be great to catch up with these
companies at the Show.

“
I will be visiting the Show
for the first time, and I’m really
looking forward to it. My wife and
I will drive down on the Tuesday
evening to attend the exhibition
the next day, then we’ll stay in
Birmingham to go back to the
Show on Thursday before driving
back in the afternoon.
I’ll make a particular point of calling in at the Turner Access stand because I am very interested in
the company’s new Beta tower system (also one of the ‘finalists’ in the New Product Zone). We also
want to enrich our fleet of breakers and heavy-duty electric tools, mini excavators up to 2.5 tonne,
and concreting equipment like power floats and pokers. I’ll check out the Indespension stand, as we
are a local dealer and authorised repair agent, and we have the company’s trailers in the hire fleet.
Although we have noticed a contraction in some areas of business, such as with local authorities,
we are this year looking to widen the geographical area we cover. We believe we service our local
customer base well and we can expand our operation into other parts of the region.
