NKBA’s Shark Event, an annual opportunity for both manufacturers and manufacturer representatives to network, will once again take place at KBIS 2025 in Las Vegas. The engaging K&B industry event is scheduled for Thursday, February 27, from 10 AM to 11:30 AM in rooms N109 – N110 in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center. Manufacturers looking for manufacturer representatives to rep their products must purchase a tabletop to take part in the event. At each table, manufacturers are given the opportunity to display their products and chat one-on-one with reps, explore potential working relationships, and discover career opportunities to fuel growth!
For NKBA members, tabletops are $325; non-members pay $425. Tabletops must be secured by February 19, 2025. If you’re a manufacturer interested in reserving a table, register here. Manufacturer representatives looking for a new product to represent can find the right fit for them by attending the Shark Event! If that’s you, simply register for the event when you register for KBIS – or add it to your registration if you’ve already registered for the trade show. Walk-ins are also welcome, and can pay at the door. For reps, entry to the event is $70, both regular and on-site. Get more information and register here!
