About

The GCPPA Fall Expo is an “EME” style event. Each exhibitor will be schedule meetings with each distributor company that is registered for the event in fifteen (15) minute intervals. Each group of distributors may contain no more than five (5) distributor reps. Exhibitors will receive a dossier that contains information provided by each distributor company. These notes will help maximize time by giving exhibitor's the opportunity to tailor their presentations/products to the specific needs of each distributor.

Set-up/Tear Down:

Exhibitors can set up their displays anytime after check-in (listed above), and may not break down their displays until they've completed all of their appointments.

Exhibitors can begin tear down immediately following their final appointment for the day. The current schedule allows for a 30-minute tear down period before checkout. For this reason GCPPA advises that all exhibitors have their person belongings packed up and organized prior to the start of the show schedule.

Any exhibitor wishing to keep their room longer than the posted check out times will need to make those arrangements with the hotel directly. Exhibitors will be invoiced for any additional charges posted to the GCPPA master bill.
