FIT Show
makes plenty
of new friends
at Lockex
Appearing at the invitation of the
organisers, with whom the FIT Show
team enjoys an excellent relationship
through their window and door
industry publications, The FIT Show
took a prime stand at Lockex.
»»WITH THE LOCKS AND
security markets enjoying
a clear crossover into
the window and door
industry the FIT team that
took care of its Lockex
stand reported ‘mission
accomplished’, despite the
event being a little quiet
at times: “Coventry, Ricoh
Arena was an excellent
venue and exhibitors
made a terrific effort with
their stands; it all looked
very professional,” said
FIT Show Sales Manager
Freya Humphries, who
worked the stand with
fellow sales team member
Rik Henderson. “So many
of the best known brands
from the lock industry
‘So many
of the best
known brands
from the lock
industry were
there so it was
an excellent
opportunity to
meet them’
were there so it was an
excellent opportunity to
meet them.”
Freya and Rik discussed
the options for exhibitors
and visitors to Lockex
for them to consider
participating in The FIT
Show, which takes place
at the National Exhibition
Centre (NEC) from 23rd to
25th May 2017.
In fact in addition to
meeting people a number
actually reserved exhibition
stands as well as discussing
options within the 20% of
floorspace that remains
available: “It was a good
opportunity to discuss
the stands that remain,”
explained Rik. “At the
last FIT Show more than
8,500 visitors turned up,
an increase of 45% over
the previous show, so we
have a great deal to offer
exhibitors and visitors. The
next event is already 40%
bigger than the last!”
