GIE+EXPO 2018 and Hardscape North America: October 17-19, 2018, Kentucky Expasition Center, Louisville, Ky

摘要

With expanded Wednesday hours, dynamic education and many new exhibitors, the Green Industry & Equipment Expo (GIE+EXPO) 2018 is shaping up to be even bigger than the last three record-setting years. The annual trade show is set for October 17-19 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville, and online registration is available at www.gie-expo.com. Attendees can expect to see more new products than ever as the number of new exhibitors at GIE+EXPO and the colocated Hardscape North America increases each year. In addition, the Outdoor Demonstration Area, which offers the opportunity to test new products from both shows, is expected to meet or exceed last year's 20 acres. "This year's show is a must-attend event for industry members who are looking to move their businesses to the next level," said Kris Kiser, president and CEO of the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI). "With more trade show hours for dealers on Wednesday, and an incredible keynote on the lineup, GIE+EXPO continues to be extremely valuable business investment for exhibitors and attendees alike." As a result of the shows' continued growth, a new format is being implemented, allowing more time for dealers on the show floor on Wednesday. The indoor show floor will open exclusively for dealers, retailers and the media at noon on Wednesday, Oct. 17. Then, beginning at 3 p.m., the entire industry will be invited to visit the indoor exhibits and enjoy a welcome reception on the show floor from 5 to 7 p.m. The indoor exhibits and Outdoor Demonstration Area will be open Thursday and Friday for all industry members.
