PAC-WEST/NFDA JOINT CONFERENCE AND TABLETOP<br />
SHOW BREAKS ATTENDANCE RECORDS by Vickie Lester<br />
When you add 88 exhibitors and 332<br />
attendees, that equals success.<br />
In this third joint meeting of the Pacific-West Fastener<br />
Association (Pac-West) and the National Fastener<br />
Distributors Association (NFDA), fastener industry<br />
professionals traveled to Long Beach, California, to<br />
connect with each other, learn from each other and from<br />
the conference speakers, conduct some business, and<br />
have some fun.<br />
Tabletop Show<br />
This was the third Pac-West tabletop show, and<br />
adding NFDA to the mix resulted in a 35% increase in the<br />
number of exhibitors.<br />
