TRUXPO 2014 | Ticket Giveaway
This fall, the Tradex complex in Abbotsford, BC will be home to two big industry events when TRUXPO 2014 and the Pacific Heavy Equipment Show open doors September 19 - 20, 2014.
TRUXPO is western Canada's largest trucking and logistics show displaying Canada's biggest exhibition of Class 5-8 trucks and equipment. Presented in partnership with the BC Trucking Association, it showcases new products and the latest in commercial trucking, logistics and transportation equipment.
This year, the event will not only take over the entire Tradex complex, but also extend into 80,000 square feet of outdoor exhibit space. In addition, it has a new two-day format with new features such as an industry conference program, social and networking opportunities and plenty of special industry features designed to educate, inform and entertain.
TRUXPO attracts local, national and international exhibitors and visitors. Attendees will interact with thousands of industry peers; meet with current suppliers; get answers to critical technical questions; and take advantage of top notch training and education.
