CB Frost & Co at RSN 2024
Exhibiting at RSN once again provided a prime opportunity for us to showcase our expertise to a large rail industry audience. It was great to see so many old friends from within the industry, and to make so many valuable new contacts. This year was a major success for CB Frost & Co – More than 60 visitors came to our stand, resulting in 2 sales made on the day and 8 additional enquiries. We also found that the range of CB Frost branded freebies that we gave away on the day were extremely popular!
CB Frost & Co business development manager gave a glowing review of the 2024 Rolling Stock Networking show:
“Well, what can I say? This year’s RSN show was the best yet. We have had a lot of success exhibiting in previous years, but this year certainly stands out, with record numbers of visitors to our stand, plus enquiries and orders to boot.
“The event again showcased its importance to the rail industry due to not only the sheer numbers of visitors, but the quality of said attendees also. From Engineers to Purchase Managers and MDs, all visitors were keen to learn more about CB Frost and our Capabilities.
“We are already booked in for next year’s exhibition. Roll on RSN 2025!”
