Show Testimonials

The inaugural h+h Americas show proved to be more successful than we expected from a first year show. The show was well organized and run professionally. We found the quality and variety of exhibitors was top notch. Attendees were motivated and ready to buy. Show staff were attentive and resolved any issues with a minimum of fuss. We participated in the Influencer Program, and that program, too, met or exceeded our expectations. We are already signed up for next year’s show. We can’t wait.
Dave Riba, Harbor Sales
The most recent HHA show in Chicago was absolutely amazing! I enjoyed it so much, that I have already scheduled to attend it next year. Hope to see you there, as it’s a show you don’t want to miss!
Laura Coia, SewVeryEasy
The H+H Americas tradeshow provided excellent opportunities to connect with old and new colleagues in person and online. I look forward to attending in the future.
