This month, KBIS will once again join forces with the National Association of Home Builders and the International Builders’ Show for Design and Construction Week — the largest annual event geared toward design and construction industry professionals with more than 2,100 exhibitors combined. Design and Construction Week, held Jan. 9-11 in Orlando, Fla., helps contractors give their customers better kitchens, baths and connected homes by developing new partnerships and discovering the latest in home automation.
The Kitchen & Bath Industry Show 2017 saw an increase in attendance of more than 15% from 2016. It was the fifth consecutive year of growth for the show, and the trend is expected to continue into 2018. As of Aug. 1, exhibitor commitments are up with more than 405,000 square feet of show-floor space sold.
