Showlite: Finalist for 'Supplier of the Year - Best Design and Build' at Exhibition News Supplier Awards

We’re thrilled to announce that Showlite has been named a finalist in the 'Supplier of the Year - Best Design and Build' category at the Exhibition News Supplier Awards 2024! This nod is a huge pat on the back for our team’s hard work and dedication to creating amazing exhibition spaces.

A Big Thank You to Our Team

This wouldn’t have happened without our fabulous team, who have been nothing short of superheroes. From Helen Weston’s preplanning wizardry to Georgina Pettit and Robyn Richards’ on-site and pre-site magic, and Sean Green’s mastery of the floor plan—every effort has been stellar. And let's not forget our dynamic electrical duo, Andy Molloy and Steve Smith, led by the ever-supportive Ross Isolda. You guys didn’t just pull a rabbit out of a hat; you pulled out an entire zoo!

Our customers agree…

Our clients agree that our team is simply the best. Here’s what Gemma Eddens, Operations Director at William Reed, had to say about our work at the UK Food & Drink Shows 2024:

"I head up the operations team in the exhibitions department at William Reed and have worked with a lot of members of staff at Showlite over the years. Many who have become friends. I have to say that Showlite as a whole absolutely smashed it this year! For such a large show, the build went incredibly smoothly and the team really pulled it out of the bag. Thank you for supporting William Reed at the UK Food & Drink Shows. We may be two different companies, but this year it really did feel like one big team. A big thank you to every member of your team that worked on the show. I look forward to working with Showlite on the next one."

Looking Forward

As we get ready for the awards ceremony, we’re keen to keep pushing the boundaries of exhibition design and build. We’re honoured to be in the running and excited to continue delivering top-notch service and innovative solutions.

A huge thank you to our amazing team and wonderful clients for making this possible. Good luck to all the other finalists and stay tuned for updates as we gear up and keep everything crossed for the award ceremony in August.
