Space Information
From a fully customized exhibit to a turnkey solution, the Southwest Flooring Market offers several options to meet your needs.
Our focus is on organizing a first-class event that won’t break the bank! Our rates are half of the other flooring shows across the U.S. because we want exhibitors to realize a high return on their investment.
SPACE RATES – ALL SPACE SOLD AS RAW SPACE
In order to keep exhibitors’ ROI as high as possible, we offer the most competitive rates in the industry.
Each booth at the Southwest Flooring Market is sold as raw space. Exhibitors are encouraged to bring their own equipment and displays. You can also order your booth equipment through our general service contractor, Shepard (see exhibitor kit).
Drape Packages
$1.99 per linear foot: for linear booths that are 10′ deep, two 33″ high side walls and one 8′ back wall will be draped in white. For booths larger than 10′ in depth, side walls and back walls will be 8′ high with white drape.
Carpet or flooring does not come with your booth space and is not required, but it is encouraged for the comfort of your staff and visitors to your booth since the market floor is concrete.
Payment Schedule
Once your space has been confirmed through the contracting process, an invoice will be sent from Market Maker Events/Flooring Markets. Full payment is due within 14 days to secure the booth space. If a deposit is not received within 14 days, your requested space is subject to be placed back into open inventory.
