OFA Short Course Named as One of the 200 Largest U.S. Trade Shows
The OFA Short Course trade show has been named as one of the 200 largest trade shows by the annual edition of the Tradeshow Week 200. With more than 139,000 net square feet of exhibit space, the OFA Short Course was ranked as #194 in the United States for 2006.

“We are very proud to make the list this year. The show gets bigger and better each year because OFA is committed to making the Short Course a high quality event for both attendees and exhibitors.” said Wendy McAtee, OFA’s Director – Expositions. “We are continually reminded that the OFA Short Course is THE event to attend because it’s a great opportunity to see everything you need for your business in one place.”

The 2007 trade show is growing to more than 1,440 spaces, and attendance is expected to be approximately 10,000. The OFA Short Course is contracted to be held at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in Columbus, Ohio, through 2013.

The OFA Short Course is sponsored by OFA – an Association of Floriculture Professionals, a non-profit educational organization with 3,000 members worldwide. OFA has 77 per cent of its membership outside of Ohio, and seven per cent outside of the United States.
