In Toronto, January 30 is typically the coldest day of the year. Not this year. This year, it was a spring-like 14C outside, and aside from the rain, beautiful. And while the rest of the country may not be enjoying our spring-like weather (it was -29C with a feels like of -44C in Saskatchewan where my mom lives), Spring is just around the corner.
This beautiful weather got me thinking about outdoor weddings and outdoor events. If you have been putting together outdoor weddings for a while, you know all about Wedding-Style Event Chairs. And if your new in the business, you've probably seen them in weddings and events that they show on TV. It's a very beautiful, very simple chair that brides and wedding planners love. This bright, white, chair is easy to set-up and take down and stacks well making storage a breeze.
Here at National Event Supply, we sell our NES Reliable White Resin Folding Chair. As the name states, it's made out of resin, or plastic. It's white all the way through, so that scratches aren't visible. With the resin chair, you don't have to worry about repainting scratches like you do with the wood chair. The resin also makes the chairs perfect for outdoor use. The resin contains an additive that protects the chairs from yellowing due to UV rays, and the resin easily wipes dry if the are accidently left out in the rain. The chairs aren't just beautiful, they're incredibly strong. In a previous blog, we did a stress test to show just how strong they were. They would be an incredible addition to your inventory.
Spring is a time of rebirth and this spring, we hope to introduce a bunch new products. From new products to new product categories, we'll be rolling new items out as we finalize deals with our factories. We hope to be announcing some of these products later in February after The Rental Show in Las Vegas. If you're at the show, we hope you'll stop by booth 4072 and talk to Dennis and the rest of the NES Trade Show Team about all of our products. If you can't make it to the show, why not request one of our catalogues?

After strolling around for a while, we decided to go to 
The first thing that we're going to want to visit is the Coffee Roasters section located right beside the BC Chef's Association Hot Chefs Competition stage. Our Trade Show team is passionate about their coffee and I know they're going to want to explore that area and learn all that they can about the art of roasting coffee as well as sample the brews available. If you're passionate about your coffee, I'd highly recommend visiting the exhibitors and learning how good coffee can be. And if you need larger coffee mugs to serve your customers their morning caffeine jolt, we have you covered with 
Finally, we highly recommend checking out the BC Chef of the Year Roasted Competition, The BC Chinese Chef of the Year Competition and the Hot Competition! Junior Chef Challenge. I have to admit that I spent an inordinate amount of time watching the Food Network over the Christmas Holidays (12 hour Iron Chef America Marathon? Don't mind if I do!). This is just like the Food Network, only live! We've been lucky of the past couple of years and our booth has been right next to the stage so we've been able to see a lot of the competition. If you need a break from visiting booths and are interested in seeing top chefs' techniques and meal ideas, this is an incredible way to spend some time.
