Clever Bean Accounting Confirms Return to FIT Show 2027

» CLEVER BEAN ACCOUNTING, THE specialist business advisors and accountants for window, door, and glazing businesses, has confirmed their return to FIT Show 2027.
Clever Bean previously exhibited at FIT Show in 2023 and 2025. For 2027, Clever Bean is stepping up its involvement in the show. Visitors can expect the same hands-on approach that made the 2025 stand a highlight for many, real conversations, on-the-spot advice, and a few surprises along the way.
Specific offers and activities for 2027 will be announced closer to the show, but anyone running a window, door or glazing business is encouraged to stop by stand H13 and see what’ s changed since they last spoke to Clever Bean.
Simon Jarman, CEO of Clever Bean Accounting said:“ Most installers and glazing businesses already have someone doing their books. What they don’ t always have is someone who’ s actually run a business like theirs and can help them see where the money is really being made or lost.

BRANDS ON THE MOVE

» EPWIN WINDOW SYSTEMS HAS unveiled new vehicle livery designed to increase the visibility of its leading window, door and hardware brands across the UK.
The new livery will feature across the company’ s distribution fleet, with different side curtain designs promoting Profile 22, Spectus, Stellar Aluminium, PatioMaster and Safeware.
Gerald Allen, Head of Marketing at Epwin Window Systems, said:“ Our distribution fleet travels the length and breadth of the country every day, so it provides a great opportunity to showcase our product brands and reinforce the breadth of the Epwin Window Systems portfolio.
“ We’ ve deliberately mixed the designs across the side curtains so all our key product ranges benefit from increased exposure.”
The new-look fleet is being introduced in phases, with three rigid trucks already on the road and a further six to follow. Another two rigid trucks and three trailers are scheduled for late 2026 and early
2027, with the remainder of the fleet set to receive the new livery during 2027 and 2028.
