The Batesville Area Chamber of Commerce invites the public to its Business Expo, presented by FNBC, scheduled for Wednesday, June 7, 2023, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Batesville Community Center.
This year’s theme is “Game Show” and will be held at the Batesville Community Center. It’s free and open to the public, and the chamber says community members are invited to ‘come on down.’
Vendors will decorate their booth just like their favorite television game shows, like “Wheel of Fortune,” “Minute to Win It,” or “Jeopardy.”
“We are excited to see over 100 local businesses connect with thousands of potential customers under one roof,” said Sarah Barnhill, BACC’s director of memberships and programs. “We are ready to see familiar faces and welcome new vendors this year. We have added booth spaces and activities to this growing event.”
Vendors will offer giveaways, hold creative contests, and demonstrate products and services.
“Our Business Expo is the perfect platform to network, learn, and have fun,” said Barnhill. “Join us for a day filled with excitement and entertainment. You’ll leave with new knowledge, new connections, and maybe even a prize or two.”
Co-exhibiters will participate in the business-to-business trade show and networking hour at 10 a.m.
Doors will open to the public at 11 a.m. A Taste of the Chamber, featuring local cuisine served by chamber members, will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The Business Expo features a Kids Zone with activities for kids and a Career Showcase, encouraging visitors to learn about current job openings. The Kids Zone and Career Showcase will occur from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
“The expo continues to be a community tradition and the best way for our businesses to showcase products and services,” said Barnhill. “This event was created to promote member services and products to the community. I am proud that we have built a reputation for hosting one of the region’s best and biggest trade shows.”
FNBC presents the expo with additional support from Bad Boy Mowers, the City of Batesville, Intimidator Group, Merchants & Planters Bank, Optimum, Peco Foods, RAWK Imprinting, Sonic Drive-In, the UPS Store, and White River Health.
