EXHIBITOR Magazine Announces Industry’s 'Top 40' Exhibit Producers

2/28/2019 - Exhibitor Media Group, the award-winning monthly magazine featuring best practices in trade show marketing, and Find It – Marketplace, the buyer’s guide to trade show products and services, recently announced the companies that qualified for the 2019 Find It – Top 40, which honors the industry's top exhibit producers. More than 100 exhibit houses with offices in the United States and/or Canada applied and were subjected to an exhaustive evaluation process including more than 50 individual criteria, all weighted to reflect how EXHIBITOR readers and Editorial Advisory Board members value them when vetting and selecting potential partners.

The myriad criteria considered were categorized into five primary areas:

The evaluation process also included a survey of current clients and a review of entrants' past projects, selling points, and innovations, conducted by corporate exhibit managers. The 40 firms who earned the highest scores were announced during an awards ceremony on Feb. 26 at EXHIBITORLIVE, the professional development conference for trade show and corporate event marketers.

"This program is intended to spotlight the best exhibit producers in the industry, while also providing a valuable resource for exhibit managers searching for new potential partners," said Randy Acker, president and chief operating officer of Exhibitor Media Group. “The second-annual Find It – Top 40 represents the most exclusive list of U.S. and Canadian exhibit providers in the industry and serves as the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval when it comes to the companies behind many of the most successful trade show stands in the world.”

The following companies qualified for the 2019 Find It – Top 40 list, and five of them were honored for earning the highest score in an individual category of criteria: Freeman (in the category of Company and Capabilities), The Trade Group (in the category of Honors and Awards), Access TCA Inc. (in the category of Thought Leadership and Industry Participation), Deckel & Moneypenny (in the category of Service and Reliability), and 3D Exhibits Inc. (in the category of Creativity and Key Differentiators). “The competition for a spot on the 2019 Find It – Top 40 list was extremely competitive. After evaluating dozens of criteria and totaling the scores, less than one one-hundredth of a point separated 40th from 41st place — and nine companies were within a single point of making the cut,” said Travis Stanton, editor of EXHIBITOR magazine. “That’s a testament to not only how well this industry is served, but also the significance of this accomplishment for the 40 companies who qualified.”

All companies who made the 2019 Find It –Top 40 will be featured via an online portal that will launch later this year, as well as in the June issue of EXHIBITOR magazine. For more information, visit www.ExhibitorOnline.com/Awards/Top40.
