After weeks in the planning, design stages, and several trips to various hardware shops, plus let’s not forget driving a van too! We had set up our stand at Norfolk Show for the first time in ten years, and were ready for two days of engaging action-packed business networking! With over 81 thousand visitors attending the show, it is certainly not to be missed.
Our first morning began with an informal business breakfast, and with a great cup of coffee provided by our members’ Coffee Quest, which certainly started the day in a positive manner. Our business lounge gave our visitors an opportunity to relax, and talk in a positive environment. The Chamber was delighted to have the chance to speak and engage with so many people of all different generations about how we support business. It was really positive to see so many members and non-members using the stand and space too. There were certainly a number of very constructive conversations happening.
On the stand, we had several of our campaigns running, ‘No More Not Spots’ and ‘Just Dual it’! This was a great chance to show people some of the work the Chamber is working on to improve business support structure. One of the stands’, favourites was ‘The Human Fruit Machine’ performed by our members’ Indigo Swan, which added a really fun and lively aspect to the stand.
One of our local Gin makers St. Giles Gin provided Gin O’clock on Wednesday, the cocktails Tom Collins and St. Giles French 77, were very popular and delicious too.
The Chamber wanted to say a very big thank you to all the visitors to our stand and to all our members who supported us to make our stand happen; from the donation of furniture to printing the banners to the deck chairs, to the WIFI from Rural Broadband and of course the coffee and gin too!
