GIE+EXPO will offer an online exhibitor portal for manufacturers to promote products, resources and solutions to the industry, according to the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI).

GIE+EXPO is the industry’s point of connection, said Kris Kiser, president and CEO of OPEI and managing partner of GIE+EXPO,

This portal will launch in October and will remain active through the end of 2020.

“We’re looking forward to 2021 and already gearing up to make our next show a dynamic and engaging experience for the entire industry,” Kiser said.

The annual trade show is sponsored by OPEI, Professional Grounds Management Society and National Association of Landscape Professionals.

GIE+EXPO is the 16th largest trade show in North America according to event figures, with more than 24,000 people attending in 2019, the sixth record-breaking year in a row for GIE+EXPO. The industry’s largest show hosted more than 1,000 exhibitors and more than 20 acres of outdoor demonstration area for attendees to ride, drive, dig, and cut with the industry’s latest equipment. More than 26,500 contractors, dealers, and exhibitors attended from all 50 states and more than 40 countries.

This year’s GIE+EXPO is postponed until Oct. 20-22, 2021, in Lousiville, Ky. Registration is currently open for next year’s event here.
