More good news for the National Wood Flooring Association's annual trade show: The 2013 Wood Flooring Expo in Dallas was recognized as one of the 50 fastest-growing shows in the United States by Trade Show Executive magazine.
This is the second time the magazine has awarded the NWFA Expo with the honor; the 2012 Expo in Orlando, Fla., received the accolade as well.
The mention is based on the percentage of growth in net square feet, number of exhibiting companies and number of attendees.
"This is very rewarding recognition, especially as it's for two years in a row," said NWFA President & CEO Michael Martin in a statement. "In 2012, our Expo committee and NWFA leadership worked together to completely rebuild the Expo from the ground up, and this growth clearly shows our Expo is delivering a strong return on investment for both our exhibitors and attendees. This past year in Nashville, we had another 30% surge in attendance, so we're looking forward to exceeding expectations in 2015 when we bring the show to St. Louis for our 30th anniversary."
The 2015 NWFA Wood Flooring Expo, which will celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of the NWFA, is scheduled for April 28-May 1 at the Edward Jones Dome-where the Rams football team plays-in St. Louis. For more information about next year's Expo, visit NWFA.org.
