Shipping

All shipping is to be organized and paid independently by the exhibitor. If you are shipping in advance it is STRONGLY ADVISED to pre-arrange for return shipping from the venue, before attending the exhibition. It is also important to bring TRACKING NUMBERS with you in the unlikely event a package needs to be traced. Please also bring all necessary packing and shipping materials with you.

It is not the responsibility of EyeforTravel to arrange shipment although we will be on hand to offer advice.

All shipping should be sent to Suntec Convention Centre and should arrive no earlier than: (otherwise the hotel will charge a storage fee per day per delivery) and no later than: Monday 12th March

For your convenience I have created a Shipping Label, which must be printed out and attached to all exhibition material boxes.

Company Overview & Logo

Exhibitors each get a 50-100-word overview and their company logo in the EyeforTravel Show Guide.

Overview

This is strictly 50-100 words (no more). The idea of the overview is to simply give a brief description of your company 'products & services'.

Company Logo

Your company logo must be saved in an EPS format and saved in outlines.

Please submit your company overview together with your company logo to Julia Savage - julia@eyefortravel.com as soon as possible but before Friday 16th February at the very latest.

EyeforTravel will not be responsible if your logo and overview is not received in time or in the right format. We also reserve the right to change your company overview if it is longer that 100 words.

Advertisements

The Show Guide will be produced in 210mm by 290.7mm (A4) , our designer has asked that all artwork be produced to this size. Please supply electronic artwork as a Press Optimized PDF with the fonts embedded.

A COLOUR RUN-OUT OF THE AD MUST ALWAYS BE SUPPLIED WITH ELECTRONIC FILES. IF THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE A FAX IS REQUESTED TO MATCH FONTS FOR PAGE LAYOUT.

Also note the following:

If the advertisement is to cover the overall page, it should be supplied with crop marks and bleed of at least 3mm.

Inserts For Delegate Packs

If you have opted for an insert as part of your Expo package, please note that they must arrive at the venue during business hours by Monday 12th March at the very latest!

It is also important to bring the TRACKING NUMBERS with you in the unlikely event a package needs to be traced.
