Trade Show.

Post by Mark McCallum »

Just wondering if Therwood is doing the Awisa trade show in Sydney this year? The Aussie dollar has gone from about 70cents US to touching $1.05 in the last 6 months.
It has its positives and negatives.
It makes machines a 1/3 cheaper than before (Woo Hoo!)
But Dam it, its getting hard to compete with those flat pack importers.

AWISA is not until next year I think. I believe it got too expensive and is only being held every 4 years? Bummer, used to enjoy all the freebies:) We probably need a Thermwood distributor in Australia first though....

Yes thanks for pointing that out. I was waiting with mild anticipation thinking it was this year. 4 years is way too long.
As for dollar the way it is going it could be $1.50 but knowing my luck it will of tanked and be worth 50 cents or less :lol:

Hi Jason and Mark,

AWISA is in 2012 and there is a good chance that we might be there in some form or another. We do have a dealer for Australia/New Zealand and you can click below to view their information:

I believe our dealer will also be exhibiting at the Austech/Ausplas 2011 Expo in Melbourne towards the end of May.
