Although CBW’s editorial team wasn’t in attendance at this year’s Commercial Vehicle Show, our sales and advertising team were on the ground speaking to suppliers new and old
Held over three days from 29 April to 1 May, this year’s Commercial Vehicle Show was the event’s 25th anniversary, and took place at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham. Two members of our sales and advertising team, Amy Greaves and Charlie Lewis were there, clad in their distinctive red CBW attire, catching up with many of our valued clients and explaining more about our new CoachAndBusGuide.com website, an industry directory that is quickly growing to become an invaluable resource. During the day, Amy and Charlie kept a photo diary of who they met, and take us on a walk through the event’s highlights.
“It was great to be at the Commercial Vehicle show this year to meet some of our clients who work in the commercial vehicle industry as well as crossing over to minibus, bus and coach,” said Amy afterwards. “It was lovely to network with people and let them know about CBW and the opportunities with us as well. The show was very busy and there was a real buzz in the air. It is nice for us to get out and about and meet our clients face to face, and especially to be noticed in our bright red CBW-branded tops!”
