EXPO 2019: Robust Exhibit Sales
Nearly 100 companies have contracted 80% of the available exhibit space for the 35th Forest Products Machinery & Equipment Exposition – Expo 2019 – to be held June 26-28, 2019 at Atlanta’s Georgia World Congress Center. 
“Participation in Expo is approaching an early sell-out; most of the larger exhibit spaces are already occupied,” commented Eric Gee, SFPA’s exposition director. “Many of the exhibiting companies are determining the equipment they’ll bring for display in Atlanta, and some have expanded their exhibit space based on strong, pre-show orders,” he added.
Sponsored and conducted by SFPA since 1950, this event has traditionally included many businesses displaying everything from sawmill machinery to materials handling equipment, attracting key representatives from the nation’s wood products manufacturers, large and small. Expo 2017 featured 183 exhibitors, with a total attendance of just over 2,000.
An online sales kit and exhibit space application is available at sfpaexpo.com. “For the 2019 show, we also rolled out new event management software that streamlines the exhibit space selection and confirmation process,” Eric noted. For questions about Expo 2019, email Eric at egee@sfpa.org.
