The Spanish Ministry of Trade recognises the importance of trade fairs and their impact on the country’s economy. International trade fairs are a key instrument for trade promotion. They bring together the main entrepreneurs in each sector and are an irreplaceable framework for establishing contacts, getting to know the sector’s offer, launching projects, disseminating information, and creating important business opportunities.
Despite the increasing development of online sales platforms and the proliferation of various forms of digital marketing, face-to-face interaction and the physical display of products are still irreplaceable. It is therefore imperative for exhibitors to hire professional suppliers when it comes to building stands in whichever trade fair. The best suppliers combine design, innovation and sustainability.
Today we present to you the three best suppliers—in our opinion—of stand design and construction in both Spain and the UK.
SPAIN
Based in Barcelona, they design, produce and manage their clients’ stand projects regardless of the sector. In addition, EFS relies on a network of top-quality national and international partners for the raw materials they use.
They carry out work onsite, anywhere in the world, always guaranteeing the highest quality in all their projects. They promote joint work with qualified local partners, which makes the result of the project a guaranteed success, and they always seek the best solutions in accordance with the specific requirements of each country.
Espacio+D is a company that designs, manages and builds stands. They are interior architects with more than 15 years of experience in the sector. They offer a personalised and comprehensive service from project conception to delivery.
They collaborate with their clients in their company image, understanding the stand as another marketing tool, combining creativity, originality and quality for a better service.
They follow a working process that is divided into different phases: briefing, design, design presentation, production & assembly, and sustainable dismantling.
Alexas3D specialises in architectural renders, interior design renders, stand designs, product renders, 3D audiovisuals and virtual reality. They produce them at high speed, always aiming for “photorealistic” quality.
They believe that clients should be involved in the design and development phase. In addition to the renderings, they deliver the plan to manufacturers for stand building. Thanks to their minimal participation during the construction phase, design costs are reduced.
The company embraces flexibility as part of their working method and adapts it to each project.
UK
