Construction industry gets boost

The construction industry is again well on its way to becoming one of the best performing industries in the years to come. And what may well serve as a fitting recognition to its success is the 13th staging of Construction Show Cebu, regarded as the biggest and the longest running construction trade exhibit in the Southern Philippines.

After more than a decade of building business networks in the construction industry in the south by showcasing innovations and expertise, the 4-day exhibit, which typically happens every first Friday of June, is expected to gather over a hundred company exhibitors composed of market leaders and big hardware stores. With over 500 global brands represented, from concrete panels, flooring systems, to cement and plastering products and water heating technology and other innovative products and solutions, the exhibitors will go all out as they present their products and services to over 40,000 visitors and guests this year who will troop to the Cebu Trade Hall at the third level of SM City Cebu.

Aside from the innovative products and services, other interesting highlights of the 13th Construction Show Cebu would be discount offerings on selected products, which will be extended during the four-day exhibit, in close cooperation with Hardware Consolidated, Inc. (HCI).

A major factor of the success of the 13th Construction Show Cebu is its organizer, L.A. Ducut and Co., Inc., the event organizer of the annual exhibit for the last 12 years. Lilibeth A. Ducut-Abais, Managing Director of L.A. Ducut and Co., Inc., said that their quest for an attractive mix of innovations and expertise among more than a thousand suppliers of construction materials and technology contributed to the showís success.

The 13th Construction Show Cebu will be held on June 3-6, 2005 at the Cebu Trade Hall located at the 3rd floor of SM City Cebu. Exhibit doors open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Major sponsors include CEMEX Philippines, makers of the innovative Cemex Palitada King; and Addmix, a technological breakthrough in job-site concrete mixes and the PDI.
