TIMBER MART hosts hybrid buying show for second year in a row

With over 1,000 dealers and vendors in attendance, TIMBER MART hosted its national hybrid buying show for the second year in a row on February 15 and 16, 2024. The event was held at the Toronto Congress Centre in Toronto, ON, and online via its virtual cloud-based tradeshow platform.

“Once again this year, we’re seeing very strong attendance and support for our show thanks to the virtual convenience it has to offer alongside the member-exclusive deals and great networking opportunities available,” says Bernie Owens, president and CEO of TIMBER MART. “The hybrid show format is proving to be a valuable and cost-effective option for dealers and vendors alike and is likely one that is here to stay.”

In addition to the hundreds of TIMBER MART stores in attendance, 227 vendor booths filled the virtual and 70,000-square-foot show floor. The show floor featured a wide range of show displays and attractions, including TIMBER MART’s pallet-buy area that presented a wide range of products for sale in pallet quantities. At the centre of the floor, the TIMBER MART area encompassed hubs for all of TIMBER MART’s services and programs, including TIMBER MART LBM Distribution, dealer marketing, merchandising, and banner support.
