"We had more exhibitors and a wider range of products than ever," says black light managing director Gavin Stewart. "This year's move to the Lighthouse was a major step up as it provided much more space, it was very visually pleasing and created a really good personal atmosphere."
Having previously been held at black light's own premises, the move to the nearby lighthouse meant that the company's day to day business could also carry on unhindered. "We had to run a broadband line from our building and miles of power cabling, but that sort of thing is what we do every day," continues Gavin. "The staff at the lighthouse were keen to help us make the event a success and everybody worked together incredibly well."
The exhibitors were pleased too. Peter Sherrington of Strand Lighting commented, "It was a fantastic show, we had very good feedback and we sold equipment." John Jones of Lift Turn Move added: "It is a really friendly show and the turnout has been really good."
