Outdoor Retailer has been named by Tradeshow Week (TSW) as one of the 50 fastest growing tradeshows in North America in recognition of its net square footage growth from 2000-2002.
Outdoor Retailer applied for consideration by submitting floor plans for each year and verification of net square footage and number of exhibiting companies by the service contractor.
“Of course were thrilled about the recognition from Tradeshow Week, but more importantly, the growth of the show is a indication of the continued strength of the outdoor industry,” commented Peter Devin, ORs Show Director.
The TSW Fastest 50 will be honored at a black-tie gala November 8 at Houstons Four Seasons Hotel. Besides honoring the TSW Fastest 50, the evening will culminate with special awards given to the fastest-growing tradeshow overall and the fastest growing shows in the trade, association and consumer segments.
“The inclusion of Outdoor Retailer in the TSW Fastest 50 is further evidence of the fact that the outdoor industry has continued to expand over the last three years with new companies and vendors — despite the challenging economic conditions in the United States and Canada,” explained Adam Schaffer, Publisher, Tradeshow Week.
