2007 Annual Business Expo A Hit!
September 13, 2007
The Commerce Industrial Council’s Annual Business Expo was ‘No Monkey Business’
Chamber members and guests were treated to a “No Monkey Business” Business Expo on September 12. The event, presented by the Commerce Industrial Council Chamber of Commerce, was hosted by the new DoubleTree Los Angeles/Commerce Hotel at the Citadel Outlets and was open to public. The annual event is open to all chamber members and businesses throughout Commerce and its surrounding cities, and is one of the premiere business-to-business expos in the region.
The Chamber’s partnership with new DoubleTree Los Angeles/Commerce Hotel provided all exhibitors with valuable exposure to potential customers and clients, as well as the opportunity to introduce yourself and your business.
The beautiful foyer of the hotel was a great back-drop for our food exhibitor vendors displaying the “Taste of Commerce.” Attendees sampled food from some of the area’s top restaurants and caterers. A big “thank you” goes out to the DoubleTree Los Angeles/Commerce Hotel for providing the expo location again this year. Attendees were also treated to an array of exhibitors displaying their products and services, and an opportunity to ask questions and get to know some of their local business members.
Chamber members, business owners, and residents had a great time mingling and networking with the exhibitors, as well as with each other.
The following vendors made new contacts and renewed old customers during the event. The Chamber is very appreciative of their participation. 2007 Exhbitors were:
