Testimonials

The CHA Trade Shows have been invaluable. We have been able to grow our business and introduce our brand to new buyers. These Shows are a fantastic place to actually see those that you work with face to face. Nothing is better than that!

– Kelly Marie Alvarez, Lawn Fawn

Testimonials

At Tombow, we recognize the importance to exhibit with CHA. This is not just a place to showcase, CHA has been our strategic partner for many years now. Not just an expense but an investment well made, as we continuously see the value when we meet new potential national and international customers at the show, and even more so when our customers become our fans. And perhaps CHA will not be possible without the great support and proactive approach of their staff, willing to do anything to make our time at CHA worth it and successful.

– Sonia Viteri, Tombow

We thoroughly enjoy building an incredibly creative booth and welcoming buyer after buyer into our booth to experience our world of creativity. The ability to reach so many buyers from so many different organizations within four days is unmatched.

– Valerie Marderosian, iLoveToCreate

We participate at the CHA Show because it provides energy to our industry and we need to support the industry!

- Matthew Lanoy, BoBunny
