New management is bringing growth to the Harrogate-based exhibition. 

Key industry trade show, Christmas & Gift has undergone a management shake up that has reportedly already brought the 2011 show much success. 

The new team, which consists of Robert Anslow, Simon Anslow and Adrian Sneyd, hopes to bring significant improvements to the show for both exhibitors and visitors. Between them they have a wealth of experience of the security management and manufacturing sectors, and are 20-year veterans of Harrogate and the exhibition industry. They have overseen the dramatic overhaul of the Nursery Fair, which has been transformed into a leading nursery trade fair through building strong business relationships with suppliers and exhibitors.

 This team has already transferred this successful work ethic to the Christmas & Gift show, and reports that year on year, bookings are significantly higher with halls A, B, C and M of the Harrogate International Centre already fully booked and halls Q and the King’s Suite showing growth. Many exhibitors have increased the size of their stands and there are a number of new brands on board.

 Plans for the show, which will take place on January 9-12, 2011, include an external transformation of the halls with decorative displays from FDL Ltd and Black Box Trees.
