Concord’s favorite trade show returns April 13

On Thursday, April 13, companies from across the Greater Concord region will showcase their products and services at Business Showcase. This annual trade show, hosted by the Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce, brings together nearly 300 professionals in a lively, fun atmosphere that’s ideal for networking with new clients, meeting up with old friends, and connecting with new hires.

“Business Showcase has been a Chamber tradition for 32 years,” said Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce President, Tim Sink. “As one of the largest Chambers in the state, we’re proud to draw businesses from so many unique industries, but keep the friendly atmosphere that our exhibitors love.” The Chamber anticipates more than 75 exhibitors will participate, and so far have booths reserved from companies offering IT services, skincare products, event and meeting rental spaces, video production, mental health services, and much more.

“As a locally owned business, I find the Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce to be a professional and effective way to connect with our community,” said Kathi Russ of Epic Travel LLC, who exhibited in 2022. “The Chamber Showcase was a good investment for me, as the exposure was excellent, it was a well-organized event and worthwhile. I engaged many new clients and appreciated the opportunity provided by the hard-working staff of the Chamber. If you are considering participating in the Showcase in 2023, I would highly recommend this event,” continued Russ.

Business Showcase exhibitors can anticipate meeting hundreds of attendees at the event. Media sponsors Binnie Media, Concord Monitor, and New Hampshire Business Review will provide high-profile advertising, with additional radio spots provided by WKXL. New this year, exhibitors will receive a marketing packet to draw more attendees to their booth, with eye-catching graphics and text to post on social media with the #ConcordBusinessShowcase hashtag.

As always, Business Showcase will offer exciting door prizes, event announcements from DJ Nazzy, and mouthwatering food samples from generous Hospitality Sponsors. In 2022, attendees savored delicious appetizers and treats from seven local restaurants and shops. The event door prizes are always a big hit—with a few high-value products getting extra attention. Attendees love the festive atmosphere, whether they stay for the full event, or pop in for a quick visit.

All are invited to enjoy the fun at the Chamber’s biggest networking event of the year! Business Showcase takes place on Tuesday, April 13 from 3-6 p.m. at the Grappone Conference Center in Concord.
