Testimonials from Previous BLAST Trade Show Participants
“You and your staff did a DYNAMITE job of running your convention! We will definitely be getting sales from your show. My dealer and I had people lined up 5 deep to talk with us until almost the end of the show.”
Sonja Homan, Southeast Regional Sales Manager, Humanware
“The National Association of Blind Merchants is one of the best operated organizations in the vending channel. The NABM looks to provide true business partnerships for the manufacturers. Every year the NABM, headed by Kevan Worley & Nicky Gacos, executes a hard-core sales and training conference for their members called ‘BLAST’. I have participated in this show going on 3 years and it continues to become better and stronger every year. BLAST is a great way to meet additional operators that manage both large and small government foodservice & vending facilities. In my role I rarely promote "Foodshows,” but, Kevan & Nicky have created a very valuable selling & buying network relationship between manufacturers, brokers & their operators in a very professional and positive format.”
Kevin Thompson, Nestlé Waters North America
We hope that you will exhibit at this event, as your presence at the Indy Super BLAST Trade Show will bring profit to you and your company!
