We get lots of great feedback from our exhibitors every year, but here’s a message that really stood out.

Thanks, Nick, for sharing your story!

After two years of cold calling, drawn-out sales visits

and chasing down leads, I decided to showcase my

offerings at the Restaurants Canada Show. In three

days of exhibiting, I received tremendous exposure to

my target market and saved so much time. It all makes

so much sense now – my market coming to see me

on their own time, not vice versa. I won’t hesitate to

exhibit again next year.

– Nick Singh Universal Misting Systems
