Full speed ahead
The dust has barely begun to settle following the blockbusting 2023 Executive Hire Show – so busy that we actually broke the all-time attendance record – that we are already 30% ahead of our stand sales target compared to this time last year. And we were well ahead of the previous year back then, too! Putting that into a more tangible context, the ‘early bird’ rate,
which is intended to encourage timely rebooking, has apparently worked as planned. Over 60 companies have already signed up for the 2024 event, while many other 2023 exhibitors have reserved their stand space in case anyone else nabs it. This means we’re already nearly half full, and we’re really just getting started. And here’s a note of opportunity or caution – the former for companies seeking a stand at EHS 2024 and the latter for businesses yet to complete their bookings. That’s because the 2024 floorplan is now LIVE and open to all. In the meantime, we are delighted to welcome back companies such as MHM, Snorkel, Merlo, Thwaites, CLM, Obart Pumps, Hire Supply Company, Makita, Trime, Altrad Belle, Multiquip, Doosan, Yanmar and many others of such stellar ilk. Otherwise, businesses yet to sign on the dotted line are encouraged to do so before the unthinkable happens, and manufacturers and suppliers seeking a presence at the key even in the plant & Tool hire sector should get in touch with the EHS commercial team (contact details online and on the contents page) with equal urgency. Apart from that, EHS 2024 is already shaping up to surpass
this year’s event, so be sure to make a date in your diaries for February 14 & 15 2024.
