Demand for exhibition space at WoodEX for Africa 2016 is once again exceeding all expectations, with some of South Africa’s biggest and most respected timber industry businesses already committed to showcasing their products and services at the event. More than 70 percent of exhibition space has already been pre-booked.

Organised by Acropolis Exhibitions, WoodEX for Africa will be held from 9 to 11 June 2016 at Gallagher Convention Centre in Midrand, South Africa.

Stephan Jooste, CEO of Acropolis Exhibitions, says the event is now reaping the rewards of relationships that have been built and nurtured over the past four years within the international and local timber industry. "We are very excited about WoodEX and about the loyal support from our industry friends and media partners, our repeat exhibitors and dedicated visitors from throughout Africa. We have listened to all the suggestions received through the years and we are incorporating ideas into next year's event.

"With the XIV World Forestry Congress held in Durban recently it is apt that WoodEX will focus on developing the forestry section of the event next year. We trust that our forestry partners and friends who attended the congress had a successful event and that they will share their forestry expertise, experience and future vision with the rest of the timber industry at next year's WoodEX," says Jooste.

WoodEX for Africa is the only expo in Africa focussing exclusively on the timber industry and is the perfect platform for woodworking professionals to connect with specialised dealers, to catch up with the latest timber trends, to secure new business contacts and to compare deals.
