Which Registration Type is Right for Me?

Exhibitors: Also known as manufacturers. They make/distribute products to the market. Wholesalers are their primary customers.

Manufacturers’ Rep: Independent salespeople who represent the exhibitor companies and call on wholesaler companies. Usually, a rep will represent many different product lines, so many exhibitors share the same reps.

Distributors/Wholesalers/Jobbers: Buy from the exhibitor companies and sell to end user/trimmers.

Guest: Spouse or guest of an exhibitor or wholesaler. “Guest” is referred to as a spouse, friend, family member, retiree, etc. CANNOT be an active company/person in the industry. Does NOT participate in the buying or selling of material.
