The W16 Show saw the number of visitors to the T.M Machinery stand was well up compared with 2014, with excellent sales achieved of both Striebig vertical panel saws and Viet artisan wide belt sanders.
Said the company’s sales director, Matt Pearce: “Our stand was the biggest we have ever had at the show. Despite having no new models to display this time round our sales and technical teams were kept extremely busy throughout the four-day event demonstrating both ranges of machines”.
“All in all we had a great W16 show, which seemed to attract more visitors than in 2014, despite a possible fear of the effect of Brexit,” said Matt Pearce.
Enquiries on the up from W16 Show
“As well as the sales we made during the event, we now have a great many strong leads to follow up, with the number of enquiries we received running at a higher level compared to two years ago. This goes to show that in Striebig and Viet we have two very strong and well-proven brands, as well as demonstrating the greatly improved state of the UK woodworking industry.”
