OFA Short Course Trade Show Sells Out, Waiting List Filling Up

Despite a sluggish economy, the OFA Short Course trade show is sold out and a waiting list has been established. More than 550 companies will occupy 1,550 exhibit spaces in the 7-acre trade show.

“The OFA Short Course trade show has everything you need for your business in one place. Buyers and sellers can connect and share ideas,” said Wendy McAtee, OFA’s Director – Expositions. “It’s a great place to exhibit because that is where the industry meets. It’s why the OFA Short Course is considered horticulture’s premier convention and marketplace.”

Industry suppliers and attendees from more than 20 countries will participate in the 2011 OFA Short Course, July 9-12, at the Columbus Convention Center in Columbus, Ohio.
