Test Slide 6

I look forward to attending the IGES every year. This show is an essential part to my decision-making for the upcoming year, where I find new items, new sources, and reconnect with others. Maintaining a relationship with our manufactures and networking with other buyers is very easy to do at IGES.

We started going to the IGES show about 10 years ago. Attending IGES, has enabled us to put new products in our store every year from places we would not have found if we didn’t attend.

Slide 3 - 2020

Finding new vendors is a key reason for me to go to IGES. All their products are on display and you can compare between several choices. I find the atmosphere warm and friendly at IGES and this is extremely helpful when you talk to fellow attendees to learn more about business in general or a specific vendor. Go to IGES, you will love all it has to offer
