No Suitcasing at the 2019 DPHA Annual Conference and Product Showcase

We want to remind representatives of manufacturers who have elected not to purchase display space in the 2019 Product Showcase that non-exhibiting manufacturers are not permitted to market their companies, their products or share catalogs, product literature, promotional and marketing pieces or any other similar items with DPHA Conference attendees in the Showcase or in the vicinity of the Showcase during Conference hours. 
 
We also ask dealers attending the Conference to respect the no-suitcasing policy by refraining from discussing products and other business while in or around the Showcase with non-exhibiting manufacturers and reps, and to remind manufacturers and representatives that the Showcase is neither the time or appropriate place to discuss their offerings without an exhibit.
 
We will make it easy to distinguish between exhibiting and non-exhibiting manufacturers. Manufacturers with display space will have an exhibitor ribbon attached to their name badge.
 
There will be numerous other networking opportunities when everyone can schmooze with one another after the Showcase ends and Conference programs conclude. DPHA thanks all those planning to attend the Conference for honoring the no-suitcasing policy.
