EXHIBITOR TESTIMONIALS

             The Melbourne 4x4 show is very well organised from set up, sales through to
             pack up. Great advertising which results in lots of customers. – JAMIE PADFIELD,
             WAREHOUSE OPERATIONS, AUSSIE DISPOSALS

             Norweld Australia have been attending the National 4x4 Show in Brisbane since
             2015. In the last four years we have noticed a steady increase in the number or
             customers attending the show and in turn allowing us to reach more prospective
             leads. For many existing customers it’s their annual pilgrimage to the show and
             a chance to catch up with us. We have found a format for the show that works
             very well for our business and our style of selling. We are able to display our
             promotional vehicle fitted with Norweld trays and canopies in a way that allows
             customers to check them out without us feeling like pushy salespeople. We can
             answer any questions and demonstrate key features in an environment that is
             friendly and open. - NORWELD AUSTRALIA

VISITOR TESTIMONIALS

             I found the show very educational on new products. I enjoyed seeing a wide range
             exhibitors and some really good show specials which saved me a lot of time and
             money. – JEFF

             I have been going to the show for a few years slowly setting up a new vehicle.
             From your shows I would have spent $4000 doing up my vehicle with accessories.
             I reckon I have been to the last 4 years and I live 5 hours away. It is a fantastic
             show with a great variety for all the family. Well done. - CHRIS

             Absolutely ripper show to check out. It’s got just about everything you could
             think of, and then some. Heaps of really knowledgeable people around to help
             you out with any questions you might have, and a great time to snap up a few
             “show specials”. – LACHIE

             My partner and I went to the show with the intent of getting expert advice and
             purchasing the products and services we need for our Toyota Hilux and our
             expectations were not only met, they were exceeded. We spoke to professionals
             that were friendly and knowledgeable and took the time with us to find solutions
             for our 4WD. We never expected to spend $7000 but after spending 7 hours at the
             show going from booth to booth we know we made the right decisions. The show
             was awesome. We told all of our friends too. Thanks for a great day. - MARK

             Well done Melbourne 4x4 Expo. It was a great experience, so much to see and do
