This was my first time attending the Closet Expo and it was one of the best investment I made for the growth of my company. The information and knowledge I received from some of the best leaders in the industry was priceless. I was able to chat one on one with so many successful business owners and they were more then willing to sharing some of the most important industries tips.

I enjoy learning about new products and talking to vendors. Always looking at next equipment purchase.

The educational seminars, networking, factory tours and expo were definitely worth the time away from our business. We are ready to implement what we learned to take the business to the next level!

Michelle McElroyOwner, The Home Place

The Closets Conference & Expo/Wood Pro Expo Florida was a great opportunity to get to know companies that could be potential providers and find new products that we could incorporate into our projects.

Nathalyn HernandezOwner, Handmade Cabinets LLC

Great show and very informative. My husband ( The Closet Center) and I attended the show and came out with great knowledge and new potential vendors and clients. Will attend the next shows for sure. Keep up the good work.

Valerie DahanOwner, Beauty By Eden–Jewelry Storage Solutions

This was my first time attending this particular industry event. The smaller size of this expo made for a much more personal and informative experience. Unhurried and direct access to vendors and manufacturers was a definite plus. I also enjoyed the seminars, plant tours, and multiple networking opportunities. Definitely worth the investment of time and treasure!

Closet Conference & Expo is a must attend event for anyone in the storage industry. I gained valuable insight and connections during the conference that will benefit me in my Professional Organizing business for years to come. Join the fun with us next year in San Diego!
