Can I share a booth with another company?
Exhibitors may not sublet, assign or apportion any part of the space allotted, nor represent, advertise or distribute literature for the products or services of any other firm or individual except as approved in writing by Show Management. Should two or more companies wish to "co-exhibit," Show Management requires each company to take a minimum of 100 sq. ft. of exhibit space. For example, Company A and Company B may co-exhibit by each taking one 10' x 10' booth adjacent to each other. No exhibitor will be permitted to display outside the confines of the assigned booth space in the Exposition area.

How do I order services such as carpeting, telephone, electrical, lead retrieval systems, etc.
Exhibitor services, order forms and rules and regulations are contained in the Exhibitor Service Manual which will be available online soon.

What is the exhibitor VIP Exhibits-Only code?
Exhibitors receive complimentary VIP Exhibits-Only code to distribute to their clients and/or potential clients. These codes allow clients/potential clients to register for a complimentary exhibits only pass which grants them admission to walk the exhibit show floor.

Foodservice Operator/End User VIP Passes are for the sole purpose of inviting potential clients/operators to walk the exhibit floor and are not to be used to register additional staff or register non-foodservice operators or non-end users. A foodservice operator is defined as a direct employee of a restaurant company. Appropriate documentation may be requested before registration is confirmed (exhibitors, suppliers, consultants, advertising agencies and other service providers do not qualify to use this pass).

Is there a pre-show attendee list to purchase?
A pre-show attendee list is not provided pre-show. A complimentary post-show attendee registration file is emailed to all exhibitors after the show.
