The countdown to New Zealand’s premier transport and heavy equipment expo has started with site preparations ‘trucking along nicely’ at Mystery Creek Events Centre.
With over 160 exhibitor sites sold and all the really big names in the truck, transport and heavy equipment industries in attendance, the event is set to welcome visitors on March 7 – 9.
THE Expo is a critical event for the transport and heavy equipment industries, giving trade visitors an unmatched opportunity to meet and view sector changes, new product developments and technologies all in one place.
The newly-released visitor guide to THE Expo 2013, is now available as a mobile app. The free-to-download tool enables visitors to check out all the event details and latest news before they arrive – plus use as a handy reference as they explore the three-day event.
Must-see features of xpo include the vintage and classic truck area hosted by Bill Hohepa, the power and performance zone where equipment is demonstrated in a live environment, and the popular show ‘n’ shine competition which takes place on Saturday March 9, just outside the main entrance to THE Expo.
THE Expo runs Thursday March 7 to Saturday March 9, at Mystery Creek Events Centre, Hamilton. Entry to the event is free to those involved in the industry who pre-register on www.theexpo.co.nz before March 7.
