Exhibition space being snapped up for the Greater Manchester Business Expo in May 2019

Following the success of the Lancashire and Merseyside business expos, Shout Network’s first Greater Manchester Business Expo will take place at the USN Bolton Arena on Friday 17th May 2019 from 9am to 3pm.

The Greater Manchester Business Expo will have 120+ exhibitor stands available to SMEs and organisations from around the North West looking to promote their businesses to the anticipated 2000+ visitors.

Despite still being six months away, almost half of the exhibition spaces have already been snapped up and over 500 delegates have already registered.

Risk Support Services, based in Wavertree, exhibited for the first time at the Merseyside Expo in October. Within 4 to 5 days of the expo they secured approximately £6,000 of business from visitors to their stand, and further work is promised for the new year.

Director of Risk Support Services, Stuart Johnston said, “We approached Shout to exhibit in Liverpool as we wanted to expand our reach. The response was incredible. The amount of new business that came from the event means that it’s more than paid for itself. All that attended were there to do business, and the camaraderie with the other exhibitors created a great atmosphere. We’ve now booked with Shout Network for the Lancashire, Manchester and Merseyside expos in 2019.”

Shout Network Director, Jordan Conlin said, “We’re delighted to say that the feedback from Stuart and his team at Risk Support Services echoes what many of the exhibitors at the Merseyside Business Expo have said, which is why so many of the exhibition spaces for Manchester have already sold. We expect the Manchester Business Expo to be another great showcase for North West businesses.”
