If you’re in bed business, it’s the best place to be in September!
Recognized as the UK’s biggest bed exhibition, the National Bed Federation’s (NBF) hugely popular and successful Bed Show is back for a fifth year – and will be bigger and better than ever! Taking place from the 23-24 September 2014, The Bed Show welcomes many well-known bed manufacturers and component suppliers and is a must-see for anyone in the business of buying, selling or specifying beds. All exhibitors are members of the National Bed Federation. Buying from an NBF member provides customers with the reassurance they need that they are in turn offering their customers decent products from decent companies. The format will remain largely the same but for 2014 there will be a third hall. “Our fourth Bed Show was another huge success,” said Jessica Alexander, executive director of the NBF. “Visitor numbers were up by 5% from 2012 which proves that the show is timely and relevant. “Demand to exhibit at the show has grown year-on-year so taking on the additional hall means we’re able to make around 25% more space. This enables us to have more members exhibiting but also accommodate requests for larger stands – however we will be maintaining the current restrictions of 80 sqm per brand up to a maximum of 320 sqm per member organization. We will also be reconfiguring the layout to include additional café/ refreshment areas across the three halls.” Currently only members of the NBF are invited to exhibit at 2014 Bed Show and the show will continue to present its unique mix of both bed manufacturers – all with British manufacturing bases – and component suppliers. Those able to exhibit will also be delighted that the Bed Show will be staying low-cost, thereby sticking to its original ethos.
