INDUSTRYNEWS CHELMSFORD COMPANY RETURNS TO FIT One of the first visitors to register for this year’s FIT show was David Thornton, MD of The Window Company (Contracts), a specialist commercial window installer based in Chelmsford. Having attended for a day last year, David says that he is extending his stay to two days this time to make the most of all that the event has on offer: “If I’m taking time out of the office I need to make sure that it’s really worthwhile. I’m already putting together a plan of action for the FIT show to make sure that I see all of the relevant new products on offer and meet as many new and existing suppliers as possible. “I’ll also be looking to network with suppliers and new trade partners who can help us to guarantee vital continuity of supply for some of our biggest projects, and I’ve already reserved a table in the new FIT restaurant with a view to meeting customers over lunch. For us, the FIT show is a great forum at which to do business and to see and touch new innovations which normally we would only see in the trade magazines or when sales reps visit. STEVE TAKES UP THE MASTER FITTER CHALLENGE! “We are confident that we can make the show work for us and get a real return on our investment in time and travel.” The team at Window Company (Contracts) is also hopeful that it will be seeing one of its own fitters, Steven Lockwood, in the Master Fitter Challenge. Steven has already entered the challenge and, if he does make it through to the finals, he is assured of some great support! The FIT Show will take place in Telford in June. ‘We are confident that we can make the show work for us’ Available to the South West www.clearview-uk.com To read more, visit www.clearview-uk.com MAY 2014 7
