Nothing beats summer here in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. As the warmer months have finally arrived and the hustle and bustle of the spring trade show season is winding down, Tradeshowdirect reminds you to take the time to enjoy the outside world this summer. Outdoor trade shows are always a hit, especially when the weather is just right.

Unless you’re bent on getting a tan, you’ll want to set up your booth under one of our Event Tents, featuring a custom printed canopy. Setup couldn’t get easier, you won’t even break a sweat in the summer heat. Extend the legs, pop open the tent, shove a few stakes in the ground, and relax.

Event tents are perfect for all kinds of outdoor events: parties, festivals, carnivals, old-town markets, farmer’s markets, and outdoor trade shows of course!

Speak with a representative today to find out how an Event Tent from Tradeshowdirect can work for your next outdoor event.

The ultimate trade show for trade shows, Exhibitor welcomes all kinds of trade show display and exhibit companies. We rarely exhibit at the show, but attend nearly every year. It’s important for companies like us to stay on top of the newest and most innovative display products available, and there’s no better place to see them all in one place.

This year, Tradeshowdirect’s owner (Ken Bell) will visit Exhibitor for two days, looking for products that offer a lot of features with fair price tags. The market is becoming more and more competitive, especially with companies shipping direct from China. Our long term goal is to continue to remain competitive with our US made products, even in a market that’s moving toward a trend of Chinese manufacturing. Hopefully Exhibitor 2010 can give us insight into better ways to do just that, and pass the savings on to you.

Exhibitor 2010 takes place in the Mandalay Bay exhibit hall in Las Vegas, from March 15-17.

For years Tradeshowdirect has referred to its graphic production as “Colorwave Prints.” In an effort to make our sign shop capabilities to the local market more available, we’ve rolled out Colorwave Signs & Graphics at www.colorwave.com.

We welcome local businesses in Harrisonburg, VA and nearby areas.

We have been slowly working on improving the new space over the last year, and we finally have some exhibits set up. Here’s a stitched photo of our showroom space so far… a work in progress.

Tradeshowdirect has completed its latest vehicle graphics project. Cornerstone Security approached us at a local trade show and asked us if we can supply graphics for their work van. We worked with them to create several mock-ups that they could choose from for a final look.

They brought their freshly washed van by our warehouse and we applied the lettering and logos the next day. Thanks Cornerstone!
