Exhibitor Space Sold Out for the Buy Local Business Expo

Hudson, NY, October 3, 2007 – Exhibitor space for the October 25 Buy Local Business Expo has sold out. The Expo will feature over 70 local exhibitors. The Expo will be held at the Columbia-Greene Community College and will run from 4:00 to 7:00 pm.

The Business Expo, produced by the Columbia and Greene County Chambers of Commerce is the largest collaborative business-to-business trade show in the area. The Expo gives companies the opportunity to display their products and services to the area's key decision makers, buyers and business leaders and provides a professional yet relaxed atmosphere.

The Expo is free and open to the public. A number of exhibitors will be raffling off prizes throughout the Expo at their individual booths. There will also be a chance to win big in the money machine booth. You have to attend to win!

While exhibitor space for the Expo has sold out, we still have a great way for restaurants and caterers to promote their business. We will have a sampling table for any restaurant/caterer that would like to bring a tray of food and business cards for attendees to sample . Please contact the Chamber if you are interested in showcasing your products.

Columbia-Greene Community College is located at 4400 Route 23 in Hudson. For more information contact the Columbia County Chamber of Commerce at 828-4417.
