The 28th Annual National Industrial Fastener Show/East held May 20-21 in Columbus, Ohio was an unequivocal success from most viewpoints, reports Susan A. Hurley, CEM, General Manager.

“Our visitor count was up 11% from last year’s expo in Atlanta, many exhibitors commented to us that they saw lots of customers and prospects, business was brisk, the conference program attracted a significant number of attendees and everyone seemed to enjoy the Gala Welcoming Reception as well as being back in Columbus”, says Ms. Hurley.

“All of the exhibitors I spoke with indicated they were pleased with the results of the Show and would return to Columbus again next year. Ken Forging, Inc., Jefferson, Ohio has already sent their contract and deposit for the 2009 Show. I feel this is all very positive”, comments Jim Bannister, General Partner.
