Hardlines toured The Buildings Show in downtown Toronto yesterday, to see which retailers were pitching the many pro builders in attendance.
Home Depot (its fourth year in attendance) and RONA (its first year exhibiting at the show as RONA, but they have previously exhibited under the Lowe’s banner) had their pro sales reps out in force at their booths in the Homebuilder & Renovator Expo. Home Depot was promoting its new Flatbed Distribution Centre, dedicated to pros, which opened about a year ago and which ships direct to contractors in the Greater Toronto Area. The Buildings Show continues through tomorrow.
