The WCA show in Las Vegas last week was OK for ShurVend, but the traffic was not what we wanted to see. Down 10% or more from last year is what we have heard from officials. The down trend in attendance at this show for the past 3-4 years has those of us who exhibit very concerned. And it not just this show. We are just not getting the trafiic that we need to continue to pay the costs of exhibiting.
There was a meeting of many exhibitors on Wednesday morning of the show and there are some very unhappy exhibitors whose concerns are about all the car wash shows. There will probably be some changes made in the future by the larger exhibitors that will change the way all the shows are run. ShurVend is one of many smaller exhibitors that don't have much influence on how the shows are run, so we'll just have to see how the big exhibitors decide to play this show scenario out.
Thanks to all those who did attend the WCA show and came by our booth. We enjoyed seeing and talking to you about inproving our product. We will see how all this plays out over the next few years.
