In addition to the marketing opportunity these trade shows create, your booth fee for 10’ deep booths provides you with 8’ tall back drape and 3’ tall side drape to separate your booth from those of your neighbors (note, island booths do not include these dividers, as these booths have aisles on all four sides). You also receive a company identification sign. All other booth furnishings and services are each exhibitor’s responsibility. This Exhibitor Services Manual includes information from vendors who can supply almost anything needed to make your booth complete. The only thing which is required in your booth space is floor covering. Requiring each exhibitor to provide carpet or other professional floor covering in their booth helps create a professional, aesthetically attractive environment for buyers and sellers alike.
