Basics Show a "Down-Home" Hit

By John Fullerton
 
Basics Office Products held it's annual show last weekend in St. John's, Newfoundland and the consensus opinion from attendees was that it was a big success.
 
 
It really was a great atmosphere. Basics and our Newfoundland hosts, Dicks & Company, went to great lengths to ensure that the show was a success. The show itself was super busy from start to finish - the busiest show in recent memory as the dealers really took the time to get out to the show and visit the vendors. For myself, I can't ever remember being so busy at a Basics Trade show. I had 3 booths at the show, Vision Global Media, Genuine Supply Source and American Tombow.

 The highlight of the show was the banquet that followed the show where we learned about the history of Newfoundland and then were entertained by Shaun Majumder of CBC's "This Hour has 22 Minutes". Shaun was in a word - HILARIOUS!!!! He had us rolling in the aisles with his tales of growing up in Newfoundland.

Congratulations Basics Office Products on a great event.
