Welcome to the 2009 Erotic Trade Only Show – the fifth annual gathering of adult manufacturers, distributors, suppliers and buyers in the UK Adult Industry. The show is sponsored by hotmovies.co.uk and brings together the whole UK adult industry plus a number of US and European suppliers over a busy two days on the 5th/6th July 2009.
We welcome all types of adult companies especially those involved in the manufacture and wholesale distribution of DVD, Toys, Lubricants, Lingerie, Leather, Clothing/Footwear and Sexual Health Products. If you want your brands, products or services to have a major impact in the UK then the ETO Show is the only trade exhibition platform to showcase your products.
The event takes place at the National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham, UK and is located in the Pavilion Hall. The NEC is the largest exhibition centre in the UK and has excellent facilities with five major hotels on site and direct links to the train station and Birmingham International Airport. Most participants will be able to fly direct and if not, the NEC is less than a two hour drive from either London Heathrow or Gatwick. If you are looking for distributors or wanting to sell directly to the UK adult retailers then the ETO Show is where you will find pretty much the whole of your UK sales universe in one place.
The 2008 event was a huge success with over 60 trade only exhibitors and 1137 visitors. We aim to build on those figures for the 2009 event and push closer to the 1500 trade only visitor attendance figure. ETO Magazine is again our main media sponsor, with European coverage secured through Sign Magazine.
This year we have our first ever International Pavilion reserved just for overseas exhibitors. The booths are 2metres by 2metres in size and the package includes shell scheme walls, ceiling grid, carpet, 500w power socket, 2 x spotlights, table, 2 x chairs and name board. Space only is also available. Prices are set for the international pavilion at $950 or 795 Euros. Discounts are available for the larger stands sizes.
Even if you currently work with UK distributors the ETO Show is a great networking opportunity, so how about attending as a visitor? Attending the show as a visitor is free but you do need to pre-register – go to www.etoshow.com and click on the flashing “register now” button.
If you are interested in joining companies such as Scala, Orion, ABS, Darker Enterprises, 1on1 Wholesale, Got Lingerie, Mister B, Hustler Europe and many more please email [email protected] requesting the floor plan and exhibitor details.
We do hope to see you in July!
Kind Regards
Jonathan Kirk
