RHA: CV Show 2012 looks set to be a sell-out

Tuesday, 11 October 2011 4:56 PM

With truck and van sales up and the service and repair sector serving a busy road transport business, confidence is building for the 2012 CV Show and its dedicated Workshop zone.

35% more exhibitors have booked stands compared to this time last year and, according to David Crawford, sales manager for the Show’s sales and marketing team at Crystal Communications, bookings are now received on a daily basis.

“Indications are that the industry is determined to up its game, despite the doom merchants in consumer media. With many new light and heavy vehicle launches and the oncoming impact of Euro 6 technology, there can be no better way for operators to keep up with what’s new in transport, logistics and distribution.” said Crawford.

The 2012 Show will occupy four halls of the NEC Birmingham from April 24 to 26, covering some 44,000 square metres and showcasing in excess of 400 exhibitors. Those requiring exhibitor information should contact enquiries@cvshow.com


For more details, please call the CV Show organisers on +44 (0) 1634 261262 or e-mail enquiries@cvshow.com.


The Commercial Vehicle Show is owned by the CV Show LLP, comprising the Road Haulage Association, the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders and IRTE Services Ltd, the trading company of the SOE (Society of Operations Engineers
