Size of Annual Meeting trade show more than doubles

Participation this year has more than doubled for the NCCBI Expo. More than 50 businesses and organizations have signed up to exhibit during the trade show, which will be open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. the day of the Annual Meeting. A few exhibit spaces at the EXPO remain but space is filling fast. If your business or group would like to exhibit at the NCCBI Expo, please fill out the form you can obtain by clicking here, or contact Woodson at 919-836-1402. Cost per booth space is $300 for NCCBI members and $450 for non-members.  

"Businesses now more than ever are carefully considering where to spend their marketing dollars," said Julie Woodson, NCCBI director of governmental affairs and EXPO coordinator. "When business leaders attend the NCCBI Annual Meeting they see that their exposure is maximized at this trade show. These exhibitors will be in contact with more than 1,000 business leaders from across the state."

NCCBI staff, including Director of Membership Services Kela Lockamy, have worked hard this year to enhance the exhibit area by improving the entrance area and making the trade show more aesthetically appealing and "exhibitor friendly." A highlight this year will be an area of the exhibit area that will be dedicated to Goodness Grows in North Carolina, a program through the N.C. Department of Agriculture that identifies and promotes North Carolina specialty foods and agricultural products.
