At Nomadic, we understand the pressure you are under once you sign up to exhibit at a show.  It takes a seasoned exhibitor to really know each venue to ensure a smooth exhibiting experience.

Here are some tips that may help you when you next exhibit at Olympia, London.

Once you have chosen your stand designer and contractor, you will need to decide if you are going to set the display stand up yourself or if you want it to be installed.  Many stand suppliers are able to offer a cost effective, portable display that can easily be set up to avoid extra labour costs.  However, if you have a large space or you are short on time you may want to consider asking your supplier to set up and breakdown the stand for you.
