Building industry association buys three home shows
By Adnews Staff
The Toronto-based Building Industry and Land Development Association has acquired 100% ownership of three annual consumer home shows from Marketplace Events. The deal, which will close on May 30, encompasses the National Home Show, the Toronto Fall Home Show and the GTA Home Show. The two organizations previously co-owned these events. Marketplace Events staff operating the three shows have been offered similar positions with the association.
"This acquisition provides an opportunity for BILD to expand our operations and build on our 93-year legacy," said association chair Steve Upton. "We welcome these opportunities as we continue to make the National Home Show, the Toronto Fall Home Show and the GTA Home Show treasured events on the GTA calendar."
The Building Industry and Land Development Association represents approximately 1,400 land development, home-building and renovation companies in the Greater Toronto Area.
