LAS VEGAS — GES’ recently launched Plus Series aims to simplify ordering processes, pricing structures and invoicing by consolidating labor and materials. This initiative represents the industry’s largest simplification of exhibitor services and product offerings, designed to eliminate the uncertainty surrounding exhibiting for both exhibitors and show organizers.
GES has analyzed all pricing structures and created a comprehensive, easy-to-understand series, starting with GES Material Handling+ and GES Electrical+. These will be followed by other programs throughout the remainder of 2021.

For example, GES Material Handling+ changes the measurement to pounds instead of hundredweight, allowing exhibitors to easily calculate handling costs by multiplying the weight of their shipment by one of two rates, standard or non-standard, or a flat rate if the shipment weighs less than 25 pounds. The streamlined service allows exhibitors to ship directly to the show floor or advance warehouse at no additional cost. GES Electrical+ offers an all-inclusive flat rate for electrical outlets, which includes everything needed to complete an order (outlet, materials and labor).

GES is deeply committed to making it easier for exhibitors and show organizers to create the experiences they want with less hassle. We’ve taken steps to simplify the ordering and billing process by making it simpler and more transparent,” said Jeff Quade, GES’s executive vice president of exhibits.
