Moving forward to cater for Cornwall

With restrictions possibly in place until early March, and with current market conditions as they are, Expowest Cornwall 2021 has been postponed until May. The show will now take place on Wednesday 19th & Thursday 20th May, at the Royal Cornwall Showground, Wadebridge. Although postponing the show was not an easy decision, we don't feel that running the show in March is a practical proposition, or indeed the best timing for either our exhibitors or buyers.

Cornwall is set to be busy with staycations in 2021, but it will be at least Easter before the vaccine can be rolled out nationwide and we all start to see a return to a semblance of normality. Expowest Cornwall will be as important for Cornish businesses as ever, if not even more so, to reconnect suppliers with the market, so as to showcase their new products and ranges, and to give buyers the chance to get the products and ideas they will need to be as profitable as possible through 2021.

If you have any questions about the new dates, please call us on 01934 733433. For more information about the show, follow @expowest_uk, or take a look around the website, where you can also register to attend or find out how to book your stand.

We look forward to seeing you all in May!
