Inspired by the success of its first building and property expo in December last year, the Cambodia Constructors Association (CCA) is aiming to fill 300 booths for the 2015 expo; a 20 percent increase on the 240 booths booked in 2014. The CCA also expects a significant increase in exhibitors and visitors from overseas thanks to extensive cooperation with international associations.

Following its establishment in October 2011, the CCA joined the ASEAN Constructors Federation (ACF) which represents construction-related firms in ASEAN two months later. In 2014, the 100-member CCA registered with the China-ASEAN Building Materials Committee and the International Federation of Asian & Western Pacific Contractors ‘Association (IFAWPCA) respectively.

CCA expects a significant rise in the number of international exhibitors and visitors who will participate the show as the partnerships with these international associations encourages external promotion to all their members who have an interest in Cambodia’s burgeoning construction market.

200 booths had already been confirmed by local and international firms by the end of June with enquiries continuing to flow in from dozens more. The “4th CCA Summit and Cambodia Construction Industry Expo 2015”scheduled for December 3-5 at Phnom Penh’s Diamond Island Exhibition and Convention Center will feature a greater and more exciting range of activities than the 1st expo last year.

The 2015 expo floor plan is divided into the following categories; Real Estate, Banking and Insurance; Construction Materials and Decoration; Electrical, Plumbing and Water Supply Machinery, Mechanical and Steel. A huge range of the latest local and international products and services in these three categories will feature at the fair.

While the booth rental price is unchanged, the expo organisers, after acknowledging the challenges from 2014 are now improving every aspect of the event management from enhancing the booth selling strategy to the expo operation and management, and exhibitor facilitation services.

In addition to the free buffet lunch offered to exhibiters (one coupon per booth), the CCA is also excited to announce that the 2015 expo will feature a ‘CCA Members and Exhibitors Networking Night’ on the second day. This unique function will allow executives and managers of over 100 CCA member companies to network and discuss business opportunities with the local and international exhibitors over food and drinks.

There are also an exciting incentives and encouragements for exhibitors that sign up for more than four booths. Exhibitors that take from 4 to 5 booths will be acknowledged as a Gold Sponsor, 6 to 7 booths as a Diamond Sponsor, and from 8 booths up Platinum Sponsor.

These exhibitors will receive special offers and incentives including free advertising in the Exhibitor Directory; company logo on event backdrops and other promotional materials, a special presentation slot to present their products/services during the CCA Members-Exhibitors Networking Night, and additional VIP coupons for their guests to access all areas of the expo and its events.

The CCA encourages interested firms to sign up for booths as soon as possible to capitalize on this unique opportunity as the organising team expects high demand for the booths means they will be sold out in the next few months.
