Exhibitor Information
WELCOME!
On behalf of the Texas Beekeepers Association (TBA), we are excited to invite you to connect with the largest audience of beekeepers in one of the busiest beekeeping areas in the state. Today, there are many challenges facing the industry that are endangering the very existence of nature’s most valuable insect. From disease to shrinking habitat to detrimental legislation, Texas beekeepers rely on the TBA for the education they need to succeed in the business of keeping bees.
The TBA Clinic is the summer’s hallmark event, promising the most up to date information within the beekeeping industry and fantastic opportunities to network with 300+ beekeepers eager to learn about the latest beekeeping technologies and innovations. Participants attend educational sessions and demonstrations on topics such as pollinator health, resistance to Varroa mites, sustainability in beekeeping and expanding beekeeping operations. For many attendees, the clinic serves as their primary opportunity to stay informed about the hottest products and services offered by our exhibitors and sponsors.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT
We have simplified our Sponsor and Donor opportunities. If you wish to be a SPONSOR and donate funds to TBA, we are asking for donations of $250 (or more) which will be used to provide enhanced amenities for attendees. These funds will be used to provide coffee/tea stations, cookie/snack tables, awards for Honey Show winners, etc. All sponsors will have their company names posted on break-out room doors, video screens in main and break-out rooms, and on refreshment tables. For more details, reach out to TradeShow@texasbeekeepers.org.
Both Sponsors and Exhibitors alike can expect traffic from over 300 eager attendees ready to purchase supplies and services from the best businesses the bee industry has to offer. This is your chance to reach your target audience and form new relationships. Don’t miss out on this great opportunity!
