Exhibitor Application Tips

Thinking about submitting an application? Here are some helpful tips:

• Choose three to five images of your products that really show off quality and your unique brand. (Three product images required).
• Wordsmith your product description:
  • Is it a short narrative that will set your items above the competition?
  • Does it give the review committee enough information?
• Optional: Review the tradeshow floor plan to check out booth layout and numbering. Make a note of your top three choices.

Keep in mind that this is a highly competitive show; the selection committee will choose Made in Montana members and products that represent the best of the Made in Montana brand for the food and gift market. 

There is no quota system for every product category; however, the Made in Montana tradeshow reserves the right to create balance for the show.
