WHY US ?

As a family-owned and operated business, we are not just after the “quick sale”. Instead, we endeavor to build successful, long-term relationships with our clients. We work hard to earn their trust and loyalty through exemplary service, attention to detail and value-added products – no matter the size of the project. In short, we treat our customers the way we would like to be treated. That may be an old fashioned approach to doing business, but the majority of our clients have been working with us for more than five years. We must be doing something right! Have a look at some testimonials.

The way we treat our customers may be old fashioned, but our products and services are at the cutting edge, and the selection we offer is exceptional. Nashville-based, we represent a convenient resource to Middle Tennessee companies and provide unique offerings to clients near and far. For example, most companies in the trade show distribution business are tied in, exclusively, with one major manufacturer. Tradeshow STOP, on the other hand, represents five of this Country's premier vendors, as well the European leader in this sector. As a result, not only do we have the largest selection of portable and modular displays available in the Mid-South, we are not compelled to sell a particular line of equipment. Rather, we perform a thorough needs assessment for our prospective clients, then match their needs to the best option(s) available, representing the best value for their trade show dollar. Similarly, most companies in our business specialize in either portable/modular equipment or custom-built displays. Through our exclusive alliance with one of the best custom houses in the country, we can offer both with expertise.

The portable/modular exhibit manufacturers we represent include Abex Display Systems (the U.S. leader in portable/modular equipment), Classic Exhibits, Display Products, Expand International (the European leader in portable/modular equipment), ExpoDisplays (a division of DDI) and Laarhoven Design. Diamond Displays International - a leader in their field - is our solution partner for unique designs, resulting in exceptionally beautiful and quality-built custom exhibits. You will find a list of all of our major vendors in the CONTACT section.

We rent trade show display equipment, sell used displays and even help clients sell their old equipment. We also offer the largest selection of trade show accessories and ancillary services available in Middle Tennessee, with strong and proven relationships with scores of highly valued suppliers.

Tradeshow STOP provides a full range of graphics design and production services. In addition to "traditional" large format trade show graphics, we can create banners, banner stands, brochures, catalogues, magazine and newspaper ad designs, point of purchase graphics and packaging. All of our trade show graphics are produced using the state-of-the-art Lambda Photo Process. Lambda provides true photographic quality, continuous tone and rich colors. More importantly, with Lambda, there is no delamination (an inherent problem with ink jet). The laminating process used to protect the printed surface is guaranteed: no peeling, no delamination, no tunneling, no discoloration for the life of the graphic under conditions of normal handling, usage and storage.

Because of our special partnership with the only Lambda printer in Tennessee and our volume of graphics business, we can provide Lambda quality at, or better than, ink jet prices with turnaround, typically, in 72 hours.

We offer assistance in trade show marketing, including pre-and-post show mailings, tips on how to manage the booth during a show, promotional items (e.g. T-shirts, giveaways), lead generation and follow up.

Finally, Tradeshow STOP offers a comprehensive Show Services and Management Program, with over 3,500 shows to our credit without a single instance of a missed deadline or lost equipment, not a single dissatisfied client. The Program is tailored to each client, dependent on their individual needs. We take the headaches and worry out of the planning/scheduling/shipping/storage/set-up & tear down process and save clients money at the same time - they love us for it!

Over 75% of our business comes from existing clients and referral business. We pride ourselves as relationship builders and solution providers, offering "One-Stop Shopping for ALL your Tradeshow needs."

We are at your service!

Jay & Carol Larimore and the entire Tradeshow STOP team.
