DALLAS April 2, 2008 Roofing industry manufacturers and suppliers looking to increase their bottom line, build brand awareness and meet face-to-face with ready-to-buy attendees, should plan to exhibit at the 2009 International Roofing Expo, the largest and most comprehensive event in the industry for commercial and residential roofing professionals.
The 2009 International Roofing Expo will be held February 3-5, in the Shoreline A&B Halls at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada USA.
"Exhibiting at the International Roofing Expo is an essential strategy for the manufacturers and suppliers to the roofing industry," said Donna Bellantone, Director of the International Roofing Expo. "It is a 'must' for companies looking to build their brand and increase market share both domestically and internationally."
The 2009 event is expected to attract 9,000 total attendance. In addition to roofing contractors, builders, replacement contractors, remodelers, building owners, facility managers, architects/engineers, project managers, foremen/superintendents, estimators and consultants, the show will also draw a large number of C-level executives and senior-level managers.
"Exhibiting at the International Roofing Expo makes good business sense," said Bill Good, Executive Vice President of NRCA, the show's official sponsor. "You will reach qualified professionals who want to examine the latest technologies and products, discuss product capabilities with industry suppliers and make purchasing decisions."
Companies wanting to exhibit in the show should sign up now to participate in Space Draw, which will begin Thursday, July 10 at the Hanley Wood Exhibitions headquarters in Dallas. Exhibitors will not be present during the process, as it takes place via phone and the web site.
To be eligible for Space Draw, companies must complete an Application & Contract and submit it with the required 50% deposit. Contracts received after the July 10 deadline will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis and charged a higher rate.
The booth rate varies based on the number of booths and NRCA membership status. The Exhibitor Prospectus, Floor Plan, Sponsorship Opportunities, and Application & Contract were mailed the week of March 17. Electronic versions of each piece can be downloaded by visiting
