By Adnews Staff
Toronto-based Southex Exhibitions has added two new shows. It has bought the Great Lakes Fishing and Outdoor Exposition from Eastern Fishing and Outdoor Expositions, and will launch a new sportsman show in Dayton, Ohio called The Sports, Fishing, Travel and Outdoor Show. The latter will be held from Jan. 25 to 28, and the Great Lakes show will be held in Buffalo from February 15 to 18, both in 1996. Exhibitors in these shows include manufacturers, retailers, service organizations and fishing associations, as well as outdoor sporting goods, hunting, camping, boat, RV, travel and vacation industries. Southex produces consumer exhibitions in North America with 59 shows in the home, craft, sportsman and pet markets. In addition, it produces trade shows including gift, natural resources, truck and business expositions.
