Take part in Machinery Update’s PPMA Show Preview
By Gail Hunt, Editor of Machinery Update
The September/October issue of Machinery
Update will be dominated by the PPMA
Show 2018 Preview and so if you are
exhibiting at the NEC in September, you
must be part of it. You need to ensure visitors have
your name on their stands to visit list, so let us have
details of what you are showing, with a photograph,
and we will include it, free of charge.
Of course, if you are not exhibiting, you still need
to be in this 100-plus page issue as it is distributed
throughout the three days at the show, as well as
to our normal list of readers.
This issue will also include a feature on meat, fish
and other proteins as well as our regular sections,
so get in touch if you have a query on suitability.
Get your details over to us by Friday 10 August at
the latest, but earlier if you want a spot nearer
the front!
