Build solid relationships with top decision makers in housing and community development at NAHRO's National Conference and Exhibition…Where attendees wield buying power!

Exhibit Hall VisitorsLooking for a way to build your market in the housing and community development industry? Look no further than the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials' (NAHRO) National Conference and Exhibition. For three days in October, the NAHRO National Conference and Exhibition will play host to more than 1,600 housing and community development executive directors, commissioners, managers, technical and purchasing professionals and many others involved in the housing and community development field.

NAHRO conference delegates come from every region of the country and are responsible for a housing inventory valued at over $90 billion and the shelter needs of more than 4 million families. Many attendees also directly control purchasing power: executive directors sign checks and commissioners approve contracts for more than $2 billion each year for products and services like yours.

If your company provides products and services to housing and community development agencies, the NAHRO 2008 Conference and Exhibition is the show for you!

Why You Need to be at the 2008 NAHRO Conference
It's the year's most effective marketing opportunity to:

  • Meet face-to-face with leading housing and community development professionals.
  • Contact new prospects and generate qualified sales leads.
  • Promote your company's image and maximize market exposure.
  • Discuss your products and services with those who have the greatest influence on buying decisions.
  • Learn firsthand about your customers' needs and demonstrate solutions your company offers.
  • Gain insight into buying plans and market trends to aid in your strategic planning.
  • Research your competition and discover how to make your company stand out.

NAHRO delivers high traffic flow in four ways!

  1. Dedicated Show Hours. No competition from conference sessions means more attendees on the Exhibit Floor with more time to spend at your booth!
  2. Refreshments, Special Prizes, Drawings, and Giveaways. NAHRO pulls out all the stops to attract attendees into the exhibit hall.
  3. Special Invitations to Local Agencies. We bring in more prospects by inviting maintenance and modernization personnel of local agencies.
  4. Special exhibit hall features. These include:
    • MSC Clinics. These special clinics, conducted by vendors who are members of NAHRO's Manufacturers and Suppliers Council (MSC), provide delegates with information on products and services to help them better run their agencies and more effectively serve their clients.
    • Demonstrations of the NAHRO e-Procurement System. Discover how the system is revolutionizing the way housing suppliers and customers do business and how your firm can participate!
