Plus Exhibition, a leading UK provider of exhibition stands, is celebrating its 44th year in business, recognising over four decades of helping British companies succeed on the trade show circuit at home and overseas.
Launched in 1981 as a small family-run business, Plus Exhibition Stands has evolved into a trusted national supplier. Over the decades, it has supported thousands of organisations – from ambitious start-ups and SMEs to major established brands – spanning industries including manufacturing, retail, healthcare, professional services and technology.
Exhibitions remain a vital platform for growth, offering opportunities for face-to-face engagement, product launches and market development. Plus Exhibition has played an integral role in this growth, providing modular exhibition stand designs and end-to-end project management to ensure businesses can focus on making an impact rather than managing logistics.
“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.
