Quebec City, QC – Planning and preparation are well underway for the new industry super-event coming to the Centre de Foires in 2014… the Quebec Forestry & Construction Expo will be co-locating with Salon CAM Québec!
“Booth sales are coming in quickly and the buzz around the event has been extremely positive,” said National Show Manager Mark Cusack. “We are very pleased to have the endorsement of the AQDE, the Association Québécoise Des Distributeurs D’Équipements, and are currently working with other industry associations,” said Cusack.
“The consensus is that these two events have a lot of crossover and these formulas work for these particular industries in this region,” said Cusack. “We have witnessed this in Prince George, British Columbia with the successful Canada North Resources Expo and in Moncton, New Brunswick with the Atlantic Heavy Equipment Show; forestry, trucking and construction are a natural fit and Quebec is the prime location,” explained Cusack.
Combined, these two events will have the potential to showcase 185,000 square feet of exhibit space and offer unparalleled sales opportunities to exhibiting companies.
More details will be unveiled shortly. Please visit www.EFCQ.ca or www.CAMQC.ca for regular updates.
The Quebec Forestry & Construction Expo will cater to those in forestry, construction, heavy equipment owners/operators, municipal workers and other facets of these industries. Evolving from as far back as the late 1990’s, including Logfor ‘98 and more recently, Wood Week, the need was there then and it is now for an event of this nature to help industry stakeholders make informed decisions about product and equipment purchases. This industry showcase is modeled off the recent success of the Canada North Resources Expo in Prince George, British Columbia, the Atlantic Heavy Equipment Show in New Brunswick and Expo Grands Travaux in Montreal, Quebec. The formula works and the timing is right for an event of this nature in Quebec.
Salon CAM Québec will draw buyers from the trucking, logging, road building and other related industries from all over Quebec. Trucks are a “driving force” in the forestry, construction and road building industries. This makes it a natural fit to share the venue and audience with the Quebec Forestry & Construction Expo. The buyers for these industries will be common to both events. Salon CAM Québec will have a strong emphasis on trucks from the class 5-8 market, which includes transport trucks, logging trucks, fuel trucks, dump trucks and other big rigs. The event will also showcase trucks from the lighter duty market, including pickup trucks, utility vans and city delivery trucks. If you work in or out of a truck, or supply the products to those who do, this is YOUR show.
