Longford EXPO 2012

IPR_Iain

Longford Chamber of Commerce in association with Longford Business Forum and Longford County Enterprise Board will be holding a Business Expo for Longford owned businesses in the vacant shopping centre in Longford Town on May 25th and 26th 2012.

100 local businesses will exhibit at the Expo. We believe the Expo will showcase the range and breadth of Longford owned businesses and provide a valuable opportunity to highlight locally provided services and products.

The Expo will provide valuable networking opportunities for the exhibitors involved, creating increased opportunities for mutual trade. The expo will be marketed widely and larger companies in the region will be invited directly.

We are going to invite locals who have excelled in business outside of Longford and essentially we will be trying to encourage people with Longford connections to consider Longford as a location to source products and services. For the exhibitor this will be a great opportunity to make connections with potential customers outside their current circle of customers and develop new revenue channels.

We anticipate that many locals will visit the Expo, many curious to see the building where it is being housed.

The Expo will also host a morning seminar, which we hope will attract national publicity. The theme of the seminar will be based around urban regeneration post celtic tiger or more specifically how a Town like Longford can find viable usages and potential investors for vacant centres such as the shopping centre where the Expo will be located. The main seminar will be held on Friday morning 25th, and open to exhibitors and invited guests. The Expo will open to the public from lunchtime on Friday.

For those businesses with no marketing paraphernalia, we have an excellent package from Turner Print Group at a subsidised rate.


NAMA are totally on Board with this - anything to promote the building and its possible future uses.


I hope you will come down and support the EXPO.
