Visitors flock to The 12th UK Concrete Show
)
The concrete industry came together at the NEC last week at the annual meeting place for the trade to make invaluable new contacts and reacquaint with existing customers.
And by the time the doors closed on Thursday afternoon 4,759 unique industry professionals had registered for the event, representing 33% visitor growth on 2023.
Exhibitors were busy doing business throughout the two days of the show:
There was standing room only during the two morning sessions at the seminar theatre and the organisers are planning a larger theatre set up next time!
The Innovation Hub was also well received. You can vote for your favourite product here with the winner of the inaugural innovation award being announced on Wednesday 17th April.
The QMJ team were delighted with exhibitor feedback from the showfloor:
“We definitely get the most value from the UK Concrete Show. Being concrete specific 95% of the visitors are either existing or potential customers.”
Elizabeth Richardson, General Manager – Premier MBP
‘…It was a good year for us, we came away with 93 leads which was an excellent result, we are currently working our way through them!’
Denise Wolstenholme, Managing Director, Adomast
“This was the third time we’ve exhibited, and this year was the best it has ever been, not only in terms of footfall but also for the organisation of the event itself.”
John Snoddy, Sales Manager - Impact Test Equipment
“The UK Concrete Show 2024 is over and what a busy 2 days it was! Thanks for everyone of the 2000+ visitors that came to see us, my voice is suffering now, but it’s all worth it!”
