The New England Grows Show announcing that they are a dissolving is a major bummer. This was one of our favorite local shows to exhibit at. We started exhibiting here in 2009 and really enjoyed our time at this show. It was an awesome opportunity to meet all the major landscape companies in the area as well as the up and comers. Overall it was a great place to locally showcase our diamond blades and snow stakes.
The past few years it’s been clear that the trade show business has slowed down significantly. Most of the shows we go to, even the national ones, have much lower attendee rates and have shrunk the size of the exhibitor space in the hall. I knew Grows was in trouble when we exhibited next to a hand lotion salesman…..
Anyway, disappointed the show didn’t work out, it really did a lot for our growth over the years. Hopefully another similar show type rises in its place.
