Attending your first exhibition❓

Don't get lost in the lead up to your event....

🕤 Be organised: Take note of the deadlines for orders, for example electrics/furniture graphics, they are they to help you and to ensure your stand is as you want it.

🗣 Ask questions: If you aren't sure about something, reach out to your suppliers and organisers. The last thing you want to do is turn up for the event and worry about your stand.

💭 Get creative: Have an open mind when it comes to utilising your space and think outside the box. The more inviting and eye catching your stand is, the more visitors you will see.

Last week was all about recovery and reflection. Something we believe is important so we can learn and make each event run as smoothly as possible.

Having back to back full shell scheme builds which included, working with new and existing exhibitors to ensure they have a perfect stand for their needs.
As well as this working closely with the organiser so things run smoothly for them, with one show having over 20 feature areas.

Now, its all about preparing for the next few months.

You may only have one opportunity to grabs someone's attention


Here are a few things to consider to encourage more visitors to your stand


👉 Promote - let people know you are exhibiting prior to the event.

👉 Be creative - You don't have to do the norm, be unique and get people interested in your stand

👉 Have refreshments - it may just help keep visitors at your stand a little longer

👉 Have the right team - bring the best people to promote your brand

👉 Engage- Once someone comes to your stand, keep them interested in what it is you are offering.

Whatever goals you have, we will work with you to ensure you make the most out of your stand.

Just one of the many builds we have had this week.

Fabric graphics were used across the majority of the stand to provide a high impact but easy install. This approach also helped satisfy our clients request for a greener approach to the stand. Each fabric is produced from recycled plastic bottles!

Simple yet effective the client was delighted with the end result (And have already booked us for 2023)

Meet Derek!

An irreplaceable man at F+B, having been with us for over 30 years. "Derk" has a wealth of knowledge in Joinery and has manufactured some of the finest stands F+B have delivered.

One of our bigger projects during 2022!

We were really proud of this project, the team put in a great effort to make sure this was finished in time for the show opening whilst having the finest of finishes.

The light box graphics all around this stand really made it attract attention during the show.

Meet Sean!

Sean has been with us for over 20 years now. Having first been involved with F+B as a freelance designer, we soon realised his worth and joined us full time.
Quickly he became our lead and senior designer which also followed with more interest in the exhibition industry, this lead Sean to find his feet with the project managing side too. His work ethic and thirst to put on a great job for people is what makes Sean a crucial member of the F+B team.

A look back at a Custom build for SDC Trailers at the Commercial Vehicle show earlier this year.
The team did a brilliant job from the design, planning and the build.
We loved the input of the bar to entice visitors to their stand as well as the feature of van doors on the showcase display.
