Innovation front and centre at Vegas show

LAS VEGAS — Innovation is taking centre stage at the National Hardware Show in Las Vegas. Retailers and vendors from across the world have descended on the Las Vegas Convention Centre for this year’s show and Canadians were no exception. HARDLINES ran into a number of Canadians buyers walking the floor from companies including RONA, Home Depot Canada, Home Hardware, Spancan, Ace Canada, and Peavey Industries. We also have seen a lot of Canadian companies exhibiting at the show, some of them for the first time. Overall, the feedback from both vendors and delegates has been overall positive.
