A Construction ‘Meet the Buyer’ Expo arranged by Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber’s Construction Forum brought together about 320 businesses and key industry players for a morning of networking and service sharing.
The event welcomed businesses from across the Barnsley and Rotherham region, providing an invaluable opportunity to connect with leading buyers and decision-makers in the construction sector. Attendees had the chance to engage directly with procurement teams, explore potential partnerships, and gain insights into upcoming projects in the industry.
The expo featured a busy exhibition space, an interactive seminar from Henry Boot on the importance of establishing Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion practices and policy in their operations, and a direct line with buyers representing a range of construction-related companies.
Shane Young, Operations Director at Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber, said: “We were delighted with the turnout and the connections made between exhibitors and visitors alike. This event is all about creating opportunities, and once again, we’ve seen businesses come together to swap business cards, showcase their services and products and make those crucial connections that will help drive the local construction industry forward.”
