A consolidated trade show in the year 2000 involving North American plumbing wholesalers, contractors, plus the decorative kitchen and bath market, will not come to fruition, according to three industry leaders.
In a letter addressed to industry leaders early last month, Inge Calderon, executive vice president of the American Supply Association, Edward Hardison, president of the Canadian Institute of Plumbing & Heating, and Allen Inlow, chief executive officer of the National Association of Plumbing, Heating, Cooling Contractors, said negotiations with the National Kitchen and Bath Association have dissolved.
