Business Showcase set for Dec. 8

Sparta - The Sussex County Economic Development Partnership will host its first Business to Business Builders and Developers Showcase from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 8, at the Lake Mohawk Country Club in Sparta. Sussex County contractors interested in growing their local business base and/or those who are tired of commuting for hours every day are invited to exhibit at this showcase, which the organizers describe as a “valuable and innovative move to bring builders and developers together for the purpose of partnership and profit.” Licensed builders and other professionals who deliver or want to deliver construction products and services to local businesses in Sussex County are invited to purchase exhibit space and showcase their business. The showcase will provide a first-time opportunity to bring forward the best business practices of exhibitors. Exhibotrs can build their local business base by networking locally with other contractors. It provides an opportunity to meet and partner with other firms to consider joint bids on larger local contracts. Aggressive advertising and a well-known central location will attract a target market for participating businesses and services. Expected exhibitors are companies involved in the building trades (i.e., architects, engineers, planners, landscape designers, paving and asphalt, masonry, roofing, siding, plumbing and heating/AC, electricians, fencing, door and window sales and installation, waterproofing, insulation, flooring, sheetrock, commercial realtors, financial services and commercial lenders, and any other businesses involved in the hundreds of products and services used in the builder/developer industry. Cost to exhibit is $85, or $100 for investors in the Sussex County EDP, or $135 or $150 for non-investors. . For information, call 973-300-1988.
