While the Australasian Gaming Expo (AGE) remains the place to see the latest gaming machinery and equipment, organisers are keen to point out that the Expo is about much more than gaming.
Pub owners and operators who attend AGE are also able to see the complete range of hospitality suppliers, with 92 per cent of exhibitors at the Expo in 2018 showing a wide range of non-gaming, hospitality-related products and services.
Some of this year’s non-gaming exhibitors come from sectors such as food and beverage suppliers, cash handling equipment, point of sale systems, building services, interior design, fitout services and many more.
Robert Van den Bergh of Commercial Kitchen Company, a supplier of wide-ranging kitchen equipment, said of last year’s show: “More new leads from new areas of Australia, especially regional. We learned this year that a lot of leads from the last two shows have now converted to customers.”
AGE organisers added: “From the exhibitors’ point of view we have many who have returned year after year with 119 returning hospitality exhibitors already registered for AGE 2019.
“In a nutshell it’s the sheer diversity of hospitality exhibitors that makes the Australasian Gaming Expo the must attend event for 2019.
“With this year being the 30th anniversary of the AGE, there will be special celebrations for both visitors and exhibitors alike.”
There are still some exhibition spaces available for this year’s show, anyone interested in securing a spot should contact the AGE team on +61 417 99 00 00 or sales@raynersalesmarketing.com.au.
