Following the endorsement of the new plans for this year's show at the last AGM, the initial stages of the promotional campaign for CEMEX 94 have been launched. The information packs and booking forms recently circulated to CEMA members have already elicited a good response with some 25 companies making stand reservations. As before, the show will be a mix of open sites and shell scheme. Over the next few weeks members will receive additional information covering show services, special packages and promotional opportunities. The support for the move back to the Pavilion Hall has been welcomed as an ideal opening to give CEMEX a separate ‘home’ at the NEC. In a statement released with the new publicity material for the show, Chairman Fred Thorns expressed his confidence and predicted that “..we will see a stronger economy, a full turnout of CEMA exhibitors showing a broad range of equipment and materials, and greatly increased activity throughout our industry”.
