Key Associations Back kbbreview EXPO

Three major trade associations have pledged their support to kbbreview EXPO 2009 (ExCeL London, 10-12 May 2009), London's established dedicated trade exhibition for innovators within the kitchen, bedroom & bathroom industry. The Bathroom Manufacturers Association (BMA) is endorsing the event, alongside the Kitchen, Bathroom, Bedroom Specialists Association (KBSA) and the Kitchens, Bathrooms and Bedrooms National Training Group (KBB NTG).

‘This support cements an already very strong relationship between our respective organisations and ensures that EXPO will deliver maximum benefit for exhibitors’, says dmg's Events Manager, Mark Pearson. ‘As we continue to develop EXPO's successful formula and further increase its value to exhibitors and visitors, the support of these respected associations gives added impetus to our ambitions for the show.’

Support from these key associations will ensure extensive exposure for kbbreview EXPO 2009 to a wide and diverse audience. EXPO organiser, dmg world media, will be working closely with each body to build a successful event for exhibitors and visitors alike. Each organisation will actively promote the show to respective member companies and the industry at large. They will also help to compile the event's cutting-edge seminar and workshop programmes, providing speakers, content and advice on key presentation topics.

As representatives explain, kbbreview EXPO again serves as a valuable vehicle to enhance the kbb industries:

‘As a leading trade association we support kbbreview EXPO, as we believe that trade exhibitions are important to the industry for a number of key reasons. Exhibitions such as this offer a platform for the launch new products, provide networking opportunities and facilitate entry into new markets’, comments Yvonne Orgill, chief executive of the BMA (pictured below left). ‘We have important messages to communicate and EXPO offers the ideal platform for this’.

‘We are delighted to be able to support the kitchen industry by backing kbbreview EXPO’, says Renée Mascari, CEO of KBB NTG (above right). ‘EXPO will allow us to go through the portfolio of courses which focus on training employees on all aspects of design, installation, sales, management, customer care and building regulations.’

Offering a showcase for the very latest products and services from many of the top bathroom and kitchen brands, kbbreview EXPO will also be packed full of exciting, interactive features and initiatives designed to provide essential business information to those attending. At the heart of these attractions will be a comprehensive seminar programme devised to explore and debate the key industry issues. A separate workshop programme has been designed to offer a more 'hands-on', interactive approach, and will be aimed at helping delegates to develop their business, selling and design skills.

Full show details, including a programme of interactive events will be announced in the run-up to the EXPO and details can be found at http://kbbreviewexpo.com.
