Design-2-Part Shows Draw Record Attendance
Prospect, CT — Design-2-Part Shows (D2P), a series of design and contract manufacturing trade shows, has established a new annual attendance record. The 11 2019 shows combined delivered 16,894 engineers and buy- ers, the highest number in the 45- year history of D2P. The new mark shattered the previous high of 14,935 set in 2018 and represented a 13.1 percent increase. “We are excited to be a part of
this recent resurgence in U.S. manu- facturing,” said Jerry Schmidt, presi- dent of Design-2-Part Shows. “It is especially gratifying to see that the increase was country-wide. All eleven regions where we held a show contributed to positive growth.” D2P will look to continue this
run in 2020 with 11 more shows scheduled in Grapevine, Texas; Atlanta, Georgia; Uncasville, Connec - ticut; Schaumburg, Illinois; Nashville, Tennessee; Santa Clara, California;
Marlborough, Massachu setts; Akron, Ohio; Long Beach, California; Oaks, Pennsylvania; and Greenville, South Carolina. Design-2-Part Shows provides
U.S. manufacturers an efficient oppor- tunity to meet local and national job shops and contract manufacturers face-to-face to source custom parts, components, services, and design. Exhibiting companies showcase their design-through-manufacturing servic- es, with more than 300 product cate- gories for the metal, plastic, rubber, and electronics industries. D2P Shows exclusively promote
