February 26th to 28th, 2012, Hall 12, NEC, Birmingham The show that attracts serious buyers!
Announcing Printwear & Promotion Live 2012
P
rintwear & Promotion Live 2011 was a huge hit with visitors and exhibitors alike – and our 2012 show looks set to be yet another winner. With stand space selling quickly, nowʼs the time to get in on a slice of the action before you miss out.
Printwear & Promotion is widely regarded as the show where the industry comes alive. The show, which regularly attracts more than 4,000 visitors, is now firmly established in the events calendar and continues to deliver success for exhibitors. It is widely regarded as THE Industry meeting place for all serious suppliers to the UK printwear and promotional product industry. And letʼs not forget that the show is a major source of new business potential. Our analysis reveals that around 40% of those who attend the show are first time visitors to P&P and most of them do not attend any other exhibition. Donʼt leave these potential new customers to your competitors! Says exhibition sales manager, Tony Gardner: “In such a competitive market, brand exposure is vital; exhibiting at P&P will give your company the exposure and promotion it needs and deserves.”
Far from being merely a networking event (important though that is), Printwear & Promotion is right at the business end of the industry, attracting serious buyers with money to spend. But donʼt just take our word for it. Hereʼs what some of our 2011 exhibitors had to say:
■ Printwear & Promotion Live more than exceeded our expectations. The big surprise was the last day, which is usually the quiet day at most shows but it was as good, if not better than the first two days.
Mark Smith, sales director, Adelco.
■ We feel that the visitors were much more focused on choosing products rather than just browsing, and this is already reflected in our conversion rates since the show. AnaJet printer sales were extremely buoyant and our embroidery machine sales were more than double last yearʼs show. Robert Miller, managing director, J&B Sewing Machine Co Ltd.
■ The show had a real buzz and Madeira staff were kept constantly busy.
Karen Burrows, managing director, Madeira UK.
