Overview
SAGE Showcase™ is a unique traveling tradeshow through Texas for professionals in the promotional products industry. Showcase provides distributors and their salespeople the best possible traveling show experience by bringing over 70 industry lines to Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio and Houston. Unlike the big national shows, SAGE Showcase gives you the opportunity to spend time with each supplier to learn about new products, exchange ideas about particular promotions and build relationships. Best of all, there is no cost to attend!
NOTE: SAGE Showcase is only open to qualified promotional products distributors (e.g., members or subscribers of SAGE, ASI, PPAI, ARA, or PSDA) and their salespeople. Attendance is FREE.
