This is a rare opportunity to acquire an established and rapidly growing B2B trade show company producing multiple annual regional events with a loyal exhibitor base and strong industry reputation. The business generated $435,000 in Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE) in 2025 and is projected to exceed $650,000+ SDE in 2026, driven by expanded locations and increased exhibitor demand. Operations are highly seasonal, and the owner’s required hours are relatively limited outside show periods, providing an attractive work–life balance while still delivering exceptional returns.

A major competitive strength is the company’s extremely loyal exhibitor community—many vendors participate in every show each year, providing consistent revenue and reliable event quality. This loyalty has directly supported the company’s ability to add new regional events, fueling its current growth trajectory and 2026 earnings projections. Exhibitors continue to request additional locations, creating a clear runway for expansion.

Included in the sale is a complete, turnkey package: a respected industry brand, refined event production systems, high-quality marketing assets, exhibitor and attendee databases, long-standing vendor partnerships, and all necessary show equipment and signage. The business also recently invested $150,000 in a new website, registration platform, and database system—providing a modern, efficient infrastructure ready for scale.

The company’s operational structure is lean and flexible. It is fully relocatable, with administrative work manageable from a home office. All shows are held in rented convention centers, requiring no long-term leases or overhead-heavy facilities. The owner’s role outside the active event windows is minimal, focused primarily on coordination, vendor communication, and exhibitor relations. This makes the business ideal for both hands-on operators and buyers who want a profitable business that does not require full-time hours year-round.

Significant opportunities exist for further expansion. The most immediate is adding more regional events, supported by exhibitor requests and the proven success of recently added locations. The brand is also well positioned to launch subscription-based online education, offering training, insight, and year-round engagement—creating a high-margin recurring revenue stream. Additional growth potential includes expanded sponsorship programs, digital products, supplier directories, virtual components, and enhanced marketing partnerships.

The owner will provide thorough training and transition support, including attending at least one show with the buyer to ensure a smooth handoff. Additional season-long support can be negotiated for a fee if desired.

With strong financial performance, limited owner workload, documented systems, loyal customers, and a clear path for expansion, this business represents an outstanding opportunity for event operators, B2B media companies, or entrepreneurs seeking a profitable, scalable business with substantial upside.
