Last minute preparations are being made for this week’s Cornwall Business Show (March 17).

A final reminder has gone out for people planning to visit the trade fair on Thursday to pre-register to gain fast-track entry to the show.

The event, at the Royal Cornwall Showground, will feature 114 exhibitors with more than 1,000 trade visitors expected.

Show managing director, Andrew Weaver, said: “I am keen to remind people that we pride ourselves on being a really inclusive show and are pleased to welcome visitors from all sectors and walks of life.

“So whether you’re the chief executive of one of Cornwall’s biggest companies or a sole trader, a finance director or somebody who runs a small independent café, we would be delighted for you to attend.”

Those who pre-register and come along on the day will be in with a chance to win a prize package worth more than £6k, that includes all manner of business services and products.

Most sectors in Cornwall’s B2B community are represented at the event, from accountancy, banking and legal services, to design, marketing, education and training, wealth management, media, IT and telephony, printing, vehicles and fleet services, business premises and venues, hospitality, building and maintenance, health and wellbeing, caterers, and even office plant suppliers.

Entry to the show is free, but visitors need to register. The show’s website, at www.cornwallbusinessshow.co.uk, will accept pre-registration up until 5pm on Wednesday.
