Savannah Boat Show sees attendance increase
GREENVILLE, S.C. – More than 9,000 people attended this year’s Savannah International Boat Show, organizers said in a statement yesterday. JBM & Associates produced the show, which was held Feb. 29 to March 2 at the Savannah International Trade & Convention Center. Attendance was up more than 25 percent from the 2006 show, JBM & Associates said.
“Feedback from the dealers has been overwhelmingly positive, with very strong sales made at the show, as well as later sales resulting from leads made during the show,” said Jacqui Bomar, JBM & Associates president.
Organizers attributed increased attendance to a strong marketing campaign, exceptional weather, a variety of marine related products and services, representation from the area’s leading boat dealers and an extensive assortment of special features and exhibits.
The 7th annual Savannah International Boat Show is scheduled for March 6-8, 2009, at the Savannah International Trade and Convention Center.
