Manufacturer Sales Meetings

Distributors can save time and money by attending multiple sales meetings held by suppliers throughout the School Equipment Show. Meetings are held both on the show floor before exhibit hours and in private meeting rooms, allowing distributors to find out the latest sales information from the vendors they represent. A total of 78% of distributor attendees at last year's event attended at least one sales meeting. Acquire the latest information and training directly from the manufacturer and address your issues at their meeting. These sales meeting can be some of the most productive hours of the entire School Equipment Show and an indispensible tool for you and your business.
