QUIET, BUT SOME DECENT LEADS

The SAGE show took place at The Three Counties Showground, Malvern on Wednesday 19th and Thursday 20th July, with what felt like disappointing numbers through the gates on day one.

Service Dealer attended on Wednesday and felt it was well laid out with lots of good exhibitors who had made an excellent effort. However, speaking to stand holders, a dissatisfaction was expressed with the volume of visitors they had seen come through. 

Several did comment though that amongst the few punters they had seen, some had appeared to be decent leads who they would be following up post-show.

From conversations held around the showground Service Dealer got the impression that the good turn out of exhibitors wanted to support the show and appreciated the opportunity it afforded to demonstrate their equipment. However, it was felt that to make it a truly viable event in the future, a greater footfall is required.

Exhibitors included well-known industry names such as Overton, Milwaukee, Kersten, PSD, T H White, EGO, Campey, Amazone, Weibang, Toro and Trimax amongst others.
