Bump in was to begin early Saturday morning. The exhibition truck was packed with the Allianz stand and commenced it’s long journey up the coast on the Friday night all as planned.
Unexpectedly, 3 hours into the 10 hour journey, the truck had to make a full stop. To it’s dismay, the devastating and unfortunate bush fires throughout NSW and QLD caused road closures. All road access was blocked and the truck driver had no way of reaching the exhibition destination.
For most exhibiting companies this may very well have been the final stop (and for some it actually was.) The natural disaster would have impacted exhibitors from showcasing their brand and presence at the upcoming event.
Nevertheless, Allianz teamed up with Expo Centric and were determined to achieve a positive outcome. Failure wasn’t an option, Expo Centric had to do everything in their power to deliver a flawless exhibition stand in time for the show opening.
