Plus Exhibition, one of the UK’s longest-running exhibition stand specialists, is celebrating its 44th anniversary, marking over four decades of helping British companies present themselves professionally at exhibitions both in the UK and abroad.
Established in 1981 as a family business, Plus Exhibition Stands has grown into a nationwide provider with a reputation for quality and reliability. Over the years, it has supported thousands of businesses – from new start-ups and SMEs to recognised household brands – across a variety of industries including technology, healthcare, retail, manufacturing and professional services.
For more than forty years, exhibitions have been central to business development, offering the chance to network, launch new products and reach fresh markets. Plus Exhibition has been instrumental in making this process simpler and more effective, offering modular stand designs and comprehensive project management to help companies maximise their presence on the exhibition floor.
“Exhibiting remains one of the most powerful ways for businesses to connect with customers and open new markets,” said Tom Bristow, Managing Director of Plus Exhibition. “Over the past four decades, we have seen how vital trade shows are to British enterprise, and we are proud to have played a part in helping so many companies succeed on the show floor.”
The company’s long-standing commitment to practical, adaptable stand solutions has earned it strong reviews from clients, many of whom return year after year. As the exhibition industry continues to develop, Plus Exhibition has embraced new formats like hybrid events while maintaining its reputation for affordability, reliability and creative design.
This anniversary also highlights the resilience of the UK’s exhibition sector. Over the years, it has faced recessions, rapid technological shifts, and the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic, yet it continues to thrive as a vital platform for commerce.
Exhibitions contribute an estimated £10 billion annually to the UK economy, and remain a powerful driver of growth. Companies like Plus Exhibition continue to play a vital role in sustaining and strengthening that contribution.
