TRADE DAY REPORT

By Nan Cleven

Every stand was occupied by Australia's leading growers and allied businesses at what was a very busy Gala Trade Day and Showcase at KCC Park in March

With a change of season, the first of our Autumn Trade Day’s was full of beautiful stock with some of the season’s trademark red and orange foliage on display. There were also some wonderful Showcase displays, exhibitors were kept busy responding to enquiries from would-be customers creating a trade show atmosphere. Our quarterly Showcases provide exhibitors with an opportunity to showcase their latest and upcoming products to a large, engaged and captive audience. A big thank you to our Major Corporate Partner, Garden City Plastics, who sponsored Trade Day and brought everyone together at the end of trading for a complimentary BBQ and drinks, and raffle.
