Plus Exhibition, a leading UK exhibition stand provider, is celebrating its 44th anniversary, highlighting more than four decades of commitment to helping British businesses showcase their products and services at trade shows across the UK and internationally.
Established in 1981 as a small family-run company, Plus Exhibition Stands has expanded steadily into a trusted national brand. Over the years, it has worked with thousands of businesses – from new start-ups and ambitious SMEs to established household names – spanning industries including technology, healthcare, manufacturing, retail and professional services.
Trade shows have always been central to business growth, providing opportunities for direct engagement, new product launches and market expansion. Plus Exhibition has been at the heart of this growth, offering modular exhibition stand designs and full-service project management that allow businesses to participate in exhibitions more effectively and with lasting impact.
“Exhibiting remains one of the most powerful ways for businesses to connect with customers and open new markets,” said Tom Bristow, Managing Director of Plus Exhibition. “Over the past four decades, we have seen how vital trade shows are to British enterprise, and we are proud to have played a part in helping so many companies succeed on the show floor.”
The company’s long-standing commitment to practical, adaptable stand solutions has earned it strong reviews from clients, many of whom return year after year. As the exhibition industry continues to develop, Plus Exhibition has embraced new formats like hybrid events while maintaining its reputation for affordability, reliability and creative design.
This anniversary also highlights the resilience of the UK’s exhibition sector. Over the years, it has faced recessions, rapid technological shifts, and the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic, yet it continues to thrive as a vital platform for commerce.
Exhibitions contribute an estimated £10 billion annually to the UK economy, and remain a powerful driver of growth. Companies like Plus Exhibition continue to play a vital role in sustaining and strengthening that contribution.
