It’s the beginning of a new year and we’re full steam ahead here at Vectis™. But, we know we’re not the only ones readying ourselves for the busy year ahead. All of the industry trade associations are making themselves ready for upcoming trade shows – their main goal, to facilitate interaction between manufacturers in their trade and distribution channel members. We know these folks have their hands full coordinating all the details that make shows like these possible for all of us to attend.
So, where might you see Vectis™ and our line of Springloaded Counterbalance Hinges amid this hustle and bustle of salespeople, suppliers, buyers, engineers, and all other manner of inquiring minds as they hit the trade show floors? Well, you may run into our Director of Sales and Marketing, Marsh Brugge and one of our Account Managers, Jody Osgood, walking the floor at the NAFEM Food Service and Equipment Supplies show being held in Orlando, FL in February. This year the NAFEM show advertises over 500 equipment and supplies manufacturers exhibiting, as well as innovative trend galleries. Of course, we can’t forget to mention the most important aspect of the show – the countless networking opportunities that a trade show offers!
We’re also extremely pleased to announce that we will have a booth at the Hearth Patio and Barbecue Association’s HPBExpo being held in Atlanta, GA in March! This show will allow us to display samples of our Vectis™ Custom Counterbalance Hinges. Visitors will have the unique opportunity to experience for themselves the difference a Vectis™ Custom Counterbalance can make for their product. Our display includes several Counterbalanced grill lid samples in order to give visitors the ability to actually feel the difference between a counterbalanced lid verses a lid with a standard hinge. We know that our visitors will not be disappointed with what Vectis™ Custom has to offer! So, stop by and visit Marsh Brugge, Director of Sales and Marketing, Warren Waxham, Technical Sales Manager, Rex McCray, Owner/CEO, and myself at the HPBExpo, March 1st – 4th, in booth # 1161. We look forward to meeting you!
