Grand View Outdoors Announces B2B Hunting Trade Show

Targeted specifically to retailers in the hunting and outdoors industry, the all-new Hunting Retailer Show aims to bring the entire industry together under one roof.

The exclusively business-to-business event will be held March 9-10, 2020, in Nashville, Tennessee, at the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center.

The exposition will feature manufacturers from the outdoor marketplace focusing primarily on the hunting industry. A 60,000-square-feet exhibit space has been reserved for the inaugural event, which promises to be highly targeted toward business owners, operators and managers. 

Jeff Bruss, president of COLE Expos, brings more than two decades of trade show management experience to the event. He leads a staff of professionals who owned, managed, grew and eventually sold one of the largest trade shows in the United States. 

Bruss identified the need for such an event through ties to the outdoor industry on both the advertising/sales and retail sides.

"I've been to multiple shows over the past few years and they were either not targeting the hunting market at all, or were specifically targeting one type of hunter," he said. "The hunting industry is much more than just guns and archery equipment and we hope to showcase it all. Even more disappointing are outdoor shows that don't include the hunting market at all, concentrating solely on the camping, climbing, hiking, biking side of things. Hunting is a strong market and we intend to proudly represent that through this show."

COLE Expos is owned by the same company as Grand View Outdoors. The synergies between the trade show organization and the B2B brands owned by GVO should make a strong bond for advertising, promoting and launching this new event. Derrick Nawrocki, president of Grand View, said, "We've never had an opportunity like this in the long history of GVO. With our strong ties to the industry, we see this as a win-win for all involved."

Grand View Outdoors operates four titles in the business-to-business space including Hunting RetailerArchery BusinessShooting Sports Retailer and Tactical Retailer, as well as the consumer titles Bowhunting WorldPredator Xtreme and Whitetail Journal.

Exhibit space for the Hunting Retailer Show includes carpeted booths, opt-in attendee lists, free passes for exhibitors to gift to customers, free app-based lead retrieval and other value-added benefits.
