The Canadian Home Improvement Show (CHIS) is less than two weeks away from its new November date. In these final days leading up to the Show the numbers speak for themselves:

- 115 Exhibitors
- 30 New Exhibitors
- 325+ Retailers registered

"With a new date and expanded focus, CHIS is offering some of the industry’s best value for home improvement retailers in the Ontario region," says Dave Campbell, President of the Lumber and Building Materials Association of Ontario (LBMAO). "The move to November makes it the second show of the calendar year, but with a more convenient date giving a true head-start on the 2012 sales season for our retailers."

Moved forward from its former February date, the CHIS will be held in November annually in future years. Retailers who attend the November show will benefit from:

- Expanded New Product Showcase
- $20,000 in Cash Draws
- $140 Complimentary Visa Gift Card to all retail stores who attend

"CHIS is the show that helps me make important purchase decisions for the new retail year," confirms retailer, J.D. Van Noy. "This year, particularly with a more convenient date, it’s a must attend for retailers who are serious about sales success. You get to access the exhibitors’ full line of products even earlier and purchase them at exclusive price points."
