Positioning in the green market

The AHMA Hardware Show hopes to profit from the scheduled staging of Gafa every two years in future. In a recent announcement the organisers point specifically to the garden segment of the Chicago fair and the lack of a Gafa event in odd years. The next AHMA Hardware Show is due to take place from 3 to 5 April 2005. However, this year’s show attracted considerably fewer exhibitors and visitors when compared with the rival National Hardware Show in Las Vegas.
