For a show like Grab & Go, you want a stand that's functional but also welcoming. Often, this means having somewhere for potential clients to sit for a brief chat, or a surface to display samples. Exhibition furniture is our specialty, and we have items that work well in the dynamic environment of a trade show. Think about the flow of people around your stand; you need to guide them without making it feel cramped.

What you need depends a lot on what you're showcasing. If you’re a food producer, you might need a small poseur table and a couple of bar stools for a quick, informal meeting space. Or perhaps a more compact cocktail table if space is tight. For those showcasing technology or services, a comfortable sofa or a couple of conference chairs can create a more relaxed meeting point. We've seen it all at ExCeL, and we know what tends to work in those halls.

We supply a lot of exhibition furniture to ExCeL. The cocktail tables are popular – they're small, neat, and provide a surface without taking up too much room. Paired with some bar stools, it makes a very efficient setup. If you need something a bit more substantial for product display or just a more solid workspace, our 6ft folding tables are robust and versatile. They're a workhorse for trade shows.

For brands wanting a more premium feel, we have options like our glass-top poseur tables. They add a touch of sophistication. And for those really wanting to create a distinct zone or a more comfortable waiting area, a two-seater sofa can make a big difference. It signals you're ready for a longer conversation.

Beyond the basic tables and chairs, think about the details. Barriers are often needed to manage queues or delineate your stand space, especially if you're doing demonstrations. We have simple chrome or black stanchions with retractable belts. We also supply display cabinets if you have smaller items you need to secure and present professionally. These come in various sizes and are great for valuable samples.

If your product involves serving samples or drinks, we can help there too. We have bar equipment, beverage equipment, and even some basic fridges if you need to keep things cool. And of course, we have crockery and glassware if you plan on offering refreshments. It’s worth remembering ExCeL has strict rules about what can be brought in, so hiring directly to the venue is often the simplest route.

Ordering from us is straightforward. You can browse our website, select what you need, and add it to your quote request. Or, if you know what you’re looking for, you can call us. We're experienced in supplying for shows at ExCeL, so we can offer advice based on what often works for exhibitors in the food-to-go sector. Let us know your stand number and the event dates.

Delivery to ExCeL London is something we do regularly. We coordinate with the venue's logistics team to ensure your hire items arrive at your stand at the agreed time. This usually happens the day before the show opens, or on the morning of the first day, depending on the build schedule. We’ll deliver everything you’ve ordered, set it in place on your stand, and then come back to collect it all at the end of the exhibition. You don't need to worry about moving heavy items or arranging transport back. We handle the logistics so you can focus on your exhibitors and visitors.

For the Grab & Go Expo, you might consider a combination: a poseur table and two bar stools for casual interaction, perhaps a small display cabinet for your key products, and a small bar counter if you’re serving drinks. Or maybe just a couple of our sturdy 6ft trestle tables for product display. It's about finding the right balance for your space and your objectives at the show. We can help you figure that out.

We also offer LED furniture, like illuminated cubes or bars, which can add a modern, eye-catching element to your stand, especially if you’re open late or want to create a distinct visual presence. It’s a way to get noticed in a busy environment.
