07 Dec Happy Holidays and show update

Good Morning Dealers,

We are pleased to share that yesterday’s crowd was up 35% compared to Friday’s attendance in November 2023. The vendor count also saw a significant increase of 38% over last year.

With such positive growth, we are rapidly approaching a point where demand for space may exceed availability — potentially as early as January, when we gain access to all five buildings in the 6-10 complex. Your continued support and participation are crucial, and we deeply appreciate your role in helping the show move in the right direction.

However, we did encounter an issue yesterday with some vendors leaving early in the afternoon. This behavior is unacceptable. While we understand that Friday afternoons can sometimes see lighter foot traffic, it is imperative to keep your booth open during the published hours of the show. Failure to do so may result in loss of booth privileges. Closing early is unprofessional and disrespectful to both customers and fellow vendors.

Our success depends on teamwork — a strong partnership between the show organizers and the vendors. When we all commit to keeping booths open and offering a full experience for visitors, we ensure the best results for everyone. A successful show benefits all of us, so let’s continue working together to deliver a professional and engaging experience that keeps attendees returning.

Thank you again for your dedication, cooperation, and commitment to our shared success. We wish you a successful day ahead and look forward to speaking soon.
