Marine Fabricators Conference Zero-Tolerance Suitcasing Policy
Marine Fabricators Conference is dedicated to the success of our exhibitors. As such, Marine Fabricators Conference has a zero-tolerance suitcasing policy. Any non-exhibiting attendee who is observed to be soliciting business as a supplier will be in violation of the anti-suitcasing policy and will be asked to leave immediately and subject to potential penalty.
What is Suitcasing?
Suitcasing is when non-exhibiting companies solicit business at a Marine Fabricators Conference-affiliated location. This includes, but not limited to, the show floor, public spaces, events, restaurants, and the host hotel. While all attendees are invited, any non-exhibiting attendee who is observed to be soliciting business as a supplier will be in violation of Show Management’s anti-suitcasing policy.
Why it’s Important
Show Management’s anti-suitcasing policy is in place to protect the financial investment made by exhibitors. Marine Fabricators Conference exhibitors are paying for access to the attendee audience and therefore we will not allow non-exhibiting companies to take attendees’ time and business away from our legitimate exhibiting customers.
What Marine Fabricators Association Will Do
Marine Fabricators Association will take preventative measures before the conference and respond to all suitcasing complaints onsite. Any attendee who is observed to be suitcasing will be asked to leave immediately and subject to potential penalty. Please report any suspected suitcasers to an MFA Board Member, Ambassador or MFA staff.
