I enjoyed a TON of things while being at the Sun Shading Expo, but the thing I found most interesting was the wide variety of vendors here. Having four decades in the industry, learning about so many new international vendors I had never known about before has been fascinating. That is what the Sun Shading Expo brings to us in North America: this international background and exposure. How else would we have known about them?
LNLuAnn NigaraCo-Owner, Exciting Windows!
Our Sun Shading Expo experience has been fantastic. We came here to meet many new fabricators throughout the country. The show has been great, and we will do it again. I encourage anyone looking to expand their business in the United States, from the distribution of components to fabrics, to consider Sun Shading Expo.
DBDaniel BuxbaumManaging Director, Top Window Covering USA, Inc.
We recommend the Sun Shading Expo mainly for the North America market if you are looking for new dealers and representatives of your product. We met some qualified leads to expand our market within the US, as well as partners and dealers. It was a success for us and we highly recommend other companies attend.
