U.S. manufacturing show sells out

Houston, TX — In a turn away from the grim news of the economy, we’ve learned that the exhibit space is sold out for the Houstex trade show and pre-registration attendance figures for the Feb. 24-26, 2009, event are higher than 2007 when the show was last held.

Nearly 190 exhibitors occupying nearly 50,000 sq ft will be in attendance at the show, with more than 60 of them demonstrating new products.

The event, taking place at the George R Brown Convention Center, is Houston’s longest running machine tool and manufacturing show. For details, visit www.houstexonline.com.
