The 23RD BIENNIAL OMAHA PRODUCTS SHOW for business and industry 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 23rd Biennial Show, September 19-20, at the Omaha Qwest Center, is the largest business and industrial expo in the State of Nebraska and one of the largest in the Midwest for 2007.

The diversity of the products and services on display at the Qwest Center Omaha, as well as the convenience of finding vendors in one place, makes the OMAHA PRODUCTS SHOW a great showcase for Midwest industry, alternating with the LINCOLN AND DES MOINES PRODUCTS SHOW on even numbered years. Next year’s Lincoln Products Show will be held at the Lancaster Event Center in Lincoln, Nebraska on October 1-2, 2008 and the Des Moines Products Show is scheduled for Oct. 29-30, 2008 at the Hy-Vee Hall at the Iowa Events Center in Des Moines, Iowa.

Mancuso, who in 1965, originated the OMAHA PRODUCTS SHOW, lined up the sponsor - the National Association of Purchasing Management –Nebraska. "This sponsorship brings the purchasing managers from hundreds of companies to the show – as customers as well as attendees from a regional marketing area around Nebraska."

The OMAHA PRODUCTS SHOW held at the Qwest Center Omaha with free admission and over 4,500 parking spots will distribute over 100,000 admission tickets by personal invitation for businesses and 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 Pavilion. These Pavilion’s aim to showcase the improvements and new products in those areas. Dex Media sponsors the Products Show Summit – which is the seminar forum. The Dex Media Products Show Summit will highlight seminars on business topics as well as industrial sessions.

The National Association of Purchasing Management – Nebraska Chapter will hold their monthly meeting at the Show. Kathy Holm, 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 Omaha 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, Packaging, Quality Control, Government, Construction, 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 Omaha Products Show is the place to be on September 19 and 20!”

The Products Show officially opens at 11 AM, Wednesday, September 19, and continues until 6 PM. The Show re-opens on Thursday, September 20, at 10 AM and is open until 4 PM.
