New Brunswick based Master Promotions Ltd. is further expanding its BC portfolio of Trade Shows by acquiring a highly successful British Columbia Trade Event, Resources Expo, previously known as the Forestry and Resources Expo which is held in Prince George, British Columbia.
This event has been organized by the Resources Society and Central Interior Logging Association (CILA) for many years and this group will still be a driving force behind this event. Master Promotions Ltd., with its many years of experience with forestry, heavy equipment and construction shows plan to grow this event which will now be known as the Canada North Resources Expo, presented by the CILA. This revamped event will take place on May 31-June 1, 2013 at the CN Centre in Prince George.
Prince George is the hub for northern British Columbia, which is an ideal location for an event of this nature as it is connected to all points north via rail and inland port to Prince Rupert. The city has an airport, which has daily flights to Vancouver and other major centres making it readily accessible for attendees and exhibitors.
The timing could not be better for an event such as this in this location. 32 Billion Dollars in Capital projects are underway with another 40 billion earmarked for future consideration. Northern B.C. is bustling with activity in regards to forestry, mining, pipelines, energy products, transportation, oil & gas and so much more. This event will showcase the leaders and rising stars of all of those industries.
The Canada North Resources Expo will surely be a must attend event for industry workers, decision makers and buyers of these flourishing industries to see everything in one place at one time.
· Forestry- harvesting, woodlots, community forests, silviculture, pulp and chips
· Oil & Gas- drillers, exploration, pipeline, well servicing
