FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
The Nebraska Business & Industrial PRODUCTS SHOW is considered one of the largest and diversified Business Expos in the Midwest. The Products Show is both a marketplace and technical center, where suppliers and vendors will be able to display their products, materials, and services for area users and buyers.
Robert P. "Bob" Mancuso, CEO of Mid-America Expositions, Inc., the Show Producer, said the 18TH Biennial Show, Oct 3-4, 2012 at Fonner Park in Grand Island, is the largest Industrial Expo in the State of Nebraska for 2012. The Nebraska Products Show for Business & Industry had been in Lincoln, Nebraska the previous 32 years. The exhibitors and attendees have been wanting a show in central Nebraska for many years.
The NEBRASKA PRODUCTS SHOW will be held in Grand Island at the Exposition Building at Fonner Park located at 700 E, Stolley Park Rd, with over 100,000 square feet of indoor show space with acres of free parking available for visitors attending the Expo.
The diversity of the products and services that will be on display at Fonner Park, as well as the convenience of finding vendors in one place, makes the NEBRASKA PRODUCTS SHOW a great showcase for Midwest industry, alternating with the Omaha products show on even numbered years. Next year’s 25th Biennial Omaha Products Show will be held in the CenturyLink Center Omaha, September 18-19, 2013.
Mancuso, who in 1965, originated the OMAHA PRODUCTS SHOW, took on the creation of the Lincoln Show in 1980, and lined up the same sponsor - the Institute of Supply Management – Nebraska (formerly the National Association of Purchasing Management –Nebraska), with the addition of the Institute of Supply Management -- Central Nebraska chapter. "This sponsorship brings in Central and Western Nebraska customers as well as attendees from a regional marketing area around Nebraska."
The NEBRASKA PRODUCTS SHOW held at Fonner Park – Exposition Building in Grand Island with free admission and free parking. There will be over 100,000 admission tickets distributed by personal invitation for Industry to attend the two day event.
Bob Mancuso, Jr., CFO at Mid-America Expositions, Inc. and Show Director said, "The Products Show is ideal for the user, the buyer, and the seller. It is a win-win-win situation for all involved in being a part of the Show. The EXPO gives attendees the opportunity to see the latest in creativity and technology. It affords the opportunity for those coming to the Show to see hundreds of products and services that can be used in day to day operations, and to see those products and services in one location and under one roof. Visitors will see demonstrations, collect literature, compare prices, and become acquainted with new suppliers all at one time."
New at the Products Show is the Technology Pavilion and the Safety, Health, and Wellness Pavilions. These Pavilion’s aim to showcase the improvements and new products in those areas. The Products Show Summit will highlight seminars on business topics as well as industrial sessions.
The Institute of Supply Management (formerly the National Association of Purchasing Management) – will hold their monthly meeting at the Show. Marty Sehn, President of the Nebraska Association, said, “Our members look forward to the Products Show and we will be holding our monthly meeting at the Show.”
Bob Mancuso, Jr. said, “The biennial Nebraska Products Show this year presents a hands on educational opportunity for company personnel involved in the procurement process, including Management, Purchasing, Architects, Contractors, Engineering, Production, Construction, Packaging, Quality Control, Government, Trucking, Transportation, Maintenance, as well as Office Personnel, for them to condense a learning process of weeks and sometimes even months, into a short span of two days. Opportunities to view new products and services, visit with current and prospective suppliers, and set future appointments are just a few of the benefits which the show offers. The Nebraska Products Show is the place to be on Oct 3-4, 2012!”
The Products Show officially opens at 1 PM, Wednesday, Oct 3, and continues until 8 PM. The Show re-opens on Thursday, Oct 4, at 10 AM and is open until 3 PM.
