ST. LOUIS, Dec. 20, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- The 2008 Commodity Classic trade show is sold out and a waiting list is in place for additional exhibitors. The trade show, featuring cutting-edge products and services and technological demonstrations, will be the largest in Commodity Classic's history with 213 companies in 840 booths. A complete list of exhibitors and their products/services can be viewed at www.commodityclassic.com.
Commodity Classic, the annual convention and trade show of the American Soybean Association (ASA), the National Corn Growers Association (NCGA), and the National Association of Wheat Growers (NAWG), will be held Feb. 28-March 1 in Nashville, Tenn.
"The Commodity Classic trade show has more than doubled in size since its inception in 1996," said Commodity Classic co-chair and NCGA Corn Board member Theresa Schmalshof. "This year's trade show will set a record with 16 percent more booths than the 2005 Commodity Classic, our largest show in history."
"Exhibitors at the trade show have access to some of the most progressive growers in the country," said Commodity Classic co-chair and ASA Vice President Randy Mann. "Most importantly, the growers at our trade show are the decision makers seeking information about products they plan to purchase."
