50% OF STAND SPACE ALREADY BOOKED FOR THE HARDWARE SHOW 2015

Hardware Association Ireland is delighted to report that following the official launch of The Hardware Show last month 50% of the stand space has already been booked. HAI Chief Executive, Jim Copeland, puts this down to a number of factors, include a “definite pick up in our market, the great work that the show steering committee has already put into the event and the professionalism of our new event partners Eventhaus.”

Demonstrating their support for the show and an eagerness to secure the best position available to them on the  exhibition floor, some of the major Industry brands have already confirmed their space including, Amalgamated Hardware, Ames True Temper, Bostik Industries, Blackspur, CCEC, Crown Paints, Donal Lynch Hardware, Dosco, D S Supplies, Dulux, Ecocem, Fleetwood, Irish Wire Products, John Murphy Castlerea, JBKey, Kilsaran, Ronseal, Tegral, True Temper, Tuck Fastners, Tucks O'Brien, United Hardware, Varian I S & Co Ltd., and many more.

The biennial Hardware Show, is the sector’s largest networking, learning and promotional platform.  It is a showcase for innovation and new product launches and a perfect opportunity to meet new and existing customers.

There will be four key streams to the show – HOME – GARDEN – BUILD and DIY and there will be no better place to find out about the latest products and services on the market for each of these sectors than at the official HAI show. Indeed, the HAI’s success in convincing the government to introduce a Home Renovation Tax Incentive Scheme has given an added boost to all participants in the sector and by extension to the show.

The Hardware Show 2015 is an event organized by the Industry for the industry. Its organisation is being driven by an influential and informed trade show committee, which has already begun planning on making THE HARDWARE SHOW an unmissable event for both merchants and suppliers.

Said Charlie Hamilton, Managing Director at Canadia Wood Flooring, "Canadia are proud to support Hardware Association Ireland's trade show 2015 in the City West Conference Centre. We believe there are strong signs of recovery and the timing of this event is excellent. This show is the official Hardware Association Ireland event of 2015 and for this reason will be very well attended by all the key decision makers within our industry. We are looking forward to getting 2015 off to a positive start at the "HAI show"

The show also coincides with Hardware Associations Ireland`s premier social event, the HAI PRESIDENT’S BALL. This is a great opportunity to meet and greet old friends and new in an informal, social setting, and it is always a very enjoyable occasion for everyone associated with the industry and their partners, both merchants and suppliers.
