Scan Display’s Cape Town branch was the exhibition stand provider for 12 overseas clients at AfricaCom, Africa’s premier telecommunications conference and exhibition. The show, which is owned and managed by Informa UK, was held at the Cape Town International Convention Centre from 10 – 11 November 2010.
International exhibitors have often sent their own stand and crew to be on site. However, at AfricaCom 2010, Scan Display’s clients entrusted them with the complete process, with Scan either building from the client’s design or both designing and building the stand. Scan was also involved in providing staff for the stands, and catering and cleaning services.
The foreign investment from these stands amounted to roughly R2.5 million (paid in US Dollars and Euros), which not only provides a boost to the South African economy, but also contributes to job creation.
The brief from Scan’s clients was to provide great value while keeping to a budget. Scan achieved this successfully in spite of building custom stands, which are generally more expensive than modular stands. The stands were uncluttered and elegant, and used lighting effectively to create interest and a flattering look-and-feel. These are cost-conscious solutions that enhance a stand when used correctly.
Scan Display has developed a national team specialising in the design and delivery of award-winning stands. Scan’s international network includes top exhibition agencies and brands, which has led to many successful partnerships on South African projects.
AfricaCom 2010 was a very successful event, experiencing a 41% increase in visitors from 2009. Seventy-five percent of the exhibition stands for 2011 have already been sold.

Banner Advertising Benefits For The Exhibitor
Banner advertising is cheaper than most other visual advertising methods, yet, highly effective. Banners are lightweight in design, making for easy setup, packing, storage, and transport. The high visibility of banner advertising enables the exhibitor to draw attention to a booth, product, brand or service. Banner advertising units are durable and can be used many times. The return on marketing spending is thus worth the investment. The application range of banner advertising is extensive ensuring that just about any business will benefit from some form of banner advertising. Scan Display offers a wide variety ranging from banner walls to pop-ups, roll-ups, flags, and hurricane types.

Promotional Gazebos Considerations And Benefits
Promotional gazebos can be used indoors and outdoors. For outdoor displays you will want a sturdy type that can withstand strong winds. Also consider how much space you will need and how much space will be available. Any company will benefit from having two or three promotional gazebos as the space for the exhibition is immediately marked of the by space taken up by the gazebo. It is visually attractive and lightweight. Easy to setup and transport, the gazebo can be used just about anywhere with equal success. Consider the colour scheme, your budget as well as signage and printing needs. You may also want to invest in add-on products such as a banner wall, flags, pop-up A frame stands, hurricane, and the shark fin.

Exhibition Display Unit – Factors To Consider
When browsing for an exhibition display unit, consider more than just the appearance. If you select a too large and bulky exhibition display unit for the event, you may pay more for space, transport, and setup. Carefully consider your particular display needs when shopping for an exhibition display unit. Consider whether you will want a portable unit, Unibox or custom stand. The portable unit can be the best choice if you plan to exhibit at various events or plan to exhibit in another town. Consider the space available, your budget, specific lay-out requirements, and the visual effect that you want to create in addition to whether you want to rent or purchase an exhibition display unit.
