LATE BREAKING NEWS  

IWF 2002 Expands
For 2002, the International Woodworking Machinery and Furniture Supply Fair – USA®, also known as IWF, will be expanding to fill the new $220 million building currently under construction at the Georgia World Congress Center.

"This addition allows us to meet the demand for more exhibit space that, to date, we have not been able to accommodate. We’re optimistic that IWF 2002 will encompass more than 800,000 net square feet, up from the 706,007 net square feet we used in 2000," commented John D. Bassett, III, IWF 2002.

"To date, space sales are ahead of where we were at this point for IWF 2000. The three exhibit floors are filling up quickly and we may need to expand into some of the meeting rooms and concourses to meet the increased demand. Buyers should look forward to a fabulous show," continued Bassett.

The new building, known now as the Phase IV construction, will be adjacent to the existing West Hall, north of the Georgia Dome, and accessible via two connecting concourses. In addition to the exhibit floor, the new building will include a large drop-off area for buses and taxis, a registration area, restaurants and a 3.6 acre landscaped plaza.

IWF is owned and sponsored by American Furniture Manufacturers Association (AFMA), Wood Machinery Manufacturers of America (WMMA), and the Woodworking Machinery Industry Association (WMIA). The largest trade show of its kind in the Western Hemisphere, IWF expects to host buyers from more than 90 countries.
