You are responsible for merchandising, set up and take down of your own booth and display. You are encouraged to transform your booth to resemble a boutique store. Your display should showcase your brand's character and attract shoppers to explore what you have to offer. Our shoppers are attracted to fun, unique and imaginative displays.
