‘Great local show that covered all aspects of the catering world’

April 19, 2016

Doing business at Expowest CornwallWe’ve got the results of our post-show visitor survey in and we’re pleased to say that, overall, your feedback has been very positive.  The survey revealed that 54.67% of visitors placed orders at the show or shortly afterwards, and that 44% of visitors found not just one, but 3 or more new suppliers.  More good news – 88.75% of visitors would recommend our show to a colleague or related business.

“We have attended three times and each time we go away with something, a contact or item or service, that was totally unanticipated. This year we came away with a new coffee bean supplier, a new approach to having enough boiling water instantly available and a PAT test booked”.  Roger Fentem, Cornish Valley View B&B.

@Littlewinnick “Thanks for a brilliant event today @expowest_uk, we made some excellent contacts and tasted some fab food”.

Toniq for blogAs you may have already read, the on-site catering was run by Truro & Penwith College, which was a success both for the college and the students.  However they weren’t the only winners at the show.  Nigel Skerrat of Cornish Oatcakes won the competition for a track day/test day in the Toniq sports car, hosted on the Cornwall Business Forum stand, and will soon be going from 0-60 in 4 seconds!  Exhibitor Payroll South West won £250.00 of Waitrose/John Lewis vouchers in the draw for those who re-booked onsite.

“The show has been a fantastic experience and a productive three days, we have generated a number of leads to follow up over the next week”.  Lisa J Banks, Access Training (SW) Ltd.

@SarahPryce “Hugely impressed by the turnout at @expowest_uk. Showcasing all that is brilliant in the South West”.

Maybe you were at this year’s show, maybe you weren’t, but if you’ve got any feedback or suggestions you’d like to share with us, we’d love to hear from you.  Why not leave us a comment or send us an email?  If you’re keen not to miss Expowest Cornwall 2017, put 7th – 9th March in your diaries now?  You could even register to attend & print your badge!
