There may be a year to go before FIT Show 2027, but there has been a noticeable increase in pre-show PR for the next event, especially compared to the build-up to the last exhibition in 2025.
One of the most recent companies to sign up as an exhibitor is Yorkshire based fabricator, Quickslide, which is promising another ‘high energy’ stand to follow on from its previous appearance last year.
Quickslide says it will be showcasing the latest developments to its Legacy sliding sash range, along with the marketing initiatives that have been created to help installers maximise sales opportunities.
Other brands to sign on the dotted line for 2027 include Business Pilot, Emplas (to promote its EVA CRM software) Fentrade, and glass machinery specialist Forel, which has trebled its stand space.
ISEO, a global manufacturer of security cylinders, locks and hardware will make its show debut, and according to FIT Show organisers, is one of a number of oversees brands from countries including Turkey, France, Spain, China, Italy and Germany.
FIT Show now even has a dedicated international sales representative who is in place to help drive new brands to the event.
Speaking back in April, FIT Show event director, Nickie West commented: “The response so far has been extremely encouraging, with a healthy mix of returning exhibitors and new brands already committing to the show, alongside continued conversations with a number of international businesses looking to make their first appearance in the UK.”
The noise surrounding FIT Show this far out from the doors opening is a positive sign for the industry, especially when current market and economic conditions are taken into account.
It’s also a very good opportunity for forward thinking companies, who are invested in the long term, to demonstrate that they have the resilience to navigate the challenges currently impacting businesses up and down the industry supply chain.
RIP Jason Scrivens
Tributes have been made to Jason Scrivens, a much loved and well-respected member of the industry community who sadly passed away last Sunday after battling with cancer.
