Green product manufacturers and retailers to meet at earthNOW expo
National trade show takes place June 4-5 at the Las Vegas Convention Center
(CSRwire) Consumers are demanding earth friendly products, and big box retailers,
specialty shops and online stores are desperate to find new and innovative
green products. Retail store buyers and corporate purchasing managers have
been attending various trade shows to source environmentally friendly
products in almost every consumer product category.
earthNOW expo, scheduled June 4-5 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, is
the face-to-face trade show that focuses specifically on products that are
natural, organic, recycled, reclaimed or eco friendly.
Retail store buyers and corporate purchasing managers visiting earthNOW
expo will see the latest in socially responsible products and services.
The exhibits at earthNOW expo will include the following green product
categories. Baby items, housewares, hardware, automotive, apparel, kitchen
accessories, pet products, lawn and garden, home solar, organic and natural
products, energy saving electronics, recycled paper goods, water systems
and products, socially responsible gifts and any other consumer products
and services for the green home and office.
Manufacturers, distributors and service providers looking to sell their
green consumer products to retailer buyers, corporate purchasing managers,
hotels and other related socially responsible businesses should exhibit at
earthNOW expo in Las Vegas. Over 500 booths are expected, representing
hundreds of companies and thousands of green products.
Store owners, buyers and merchandise managers registered for earthNOW expo
can also attend seminars that will explain how to implement or improve
their eco friendly product mix and marketing programs.
earthNOW expo CEO, Bob Peters said, "Green product manufacturers and
retailers are desperate for a face-to-face venue. earthNOW expo is the
trade show where this growing and changing industry will exchange
information and ideas about green merchandising."
Peters added, "There are many local and regional "green events and
festivals" throughout the United States. While these events help educate
the general public about environmental issues, these types of events are
not focused on the retail and wholesale business aspect of the eco
friendly products industry. earthNOW expo is a trade only,
business-to-business convention"
Peters has over 20 years of face-to-face event marketing and management
experience and has developed several new trade shows in various
industries. He also owns Vegas Display, an exhibit sales and rental
company.
Show Manager Sharon Wayne and her team will oversee booth space sales and
exhibit operations. Wayne is a Certified Exposition Manager with over 25
years of trade show industry experience and has developed several new
trade shows with Peters.
The Las Vegas Convention Center will play host to earthNOW expo. While Las
Vegas is known for its glitz and glamour, the city leads the way in many
environmentally innovative construction projects, solar plants and other
eco-friendly businesses.
Manufacturers can to reserve a booth by visiting earthNOWexpo.com. Retail
store buyers and corporate purchasing managers interested in attending
this trade show can sign up to receive e-letter updates and registration
information by visiting on the web site.
