AVEX introduces The Cooler Show for 2007
AVEX has proudly announced that it will be joined by Zenith International, Europe’s leading drinks consultancy, to stage The Cooler Show at AVEX 2007, scheduled for 24-26 April 2007 in London at Earls Court 2 – a move that will clearly benefit exhibitors and visitors of both shows. The Cooler Show brings the European water cooler industry into AVEX’s successful format to create an essential ‘must visit’ event for the vending and water cooler industries, which share many common elements.
AVEX, the premier international business to business exhibition dedicated to automatic vending, has a long established pedigree of success for over 37 years, with the past two London events providing the best attended shows in its history. AVEX Chairman David Hoskin said: "The provision of water is an essential part of workplace and out of home refreshment, so I am extremely pleased that AVEX can present this added element to visitors in an expanded show that compliments and completes the vending proposition."
Zenith International has organised numerous separate European trade fairs for the bottled water cooler industry and the point of use industry. This is the first time that the British Water Cooler Association (BWCA) and the European Point-of-use Drinking Water Association (EPDWA) have come together for a combined trade fair. The Cooler Show represents a fast growing industry that boasts 30% growth each year since 1999 in the point of use sector alone.
The appeal of the London location is ideal for the international requirements of the cooler and vending industries. In addition, the halo effect of the planned 2012 Olympics reinforces London as one of the world’s top business and tourist destinations - with accommodation, restaurants and entertainment to suit all pockets and tastes.
Featuring The Cooler Show at AVEX will enlarge the exhibition by about 20%, adding significantly to the number of exhibitors, bringing a wider variety of exhibits and attracting a broader range of visitors in greater numbers. Zenith International will be adding extra value with a full conference programme over the three days and a gala awards dinner at a prestige London location. Zenith International Chairman Richard Hall commented: "The Cooler Show is the logical next step for the market. The link with AVEX has benefits on a number of levels – not just for exhibitors, but also for the facilities managers and specifiers that AVEX already attracts. Visitors from the vending and cooler industries will all benefit from seeing more suppliers at one event."
