Countdown to Brisbane Truck Show

The 2021 Brisbane Truck Show is now only around 2 months away and event organisers have now opened ticket sales. Hosted by the HVIA (Heavy Vehicle Industry Australia) the event will be held at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre from 13-16 May 2021. According to organisers around 300 exhibitors are expected to be exhibiting. The show is attended by both suppliers and vehicle owners and operators from across industry sectors – construction, agriculture, freight, construction, transport, logistics and many others.

Event organizers have announced that attendees of the show will be treated to an array of product exhibits and displays, including cutting-edge trailer designs, the latest technological solutions, and new truck releases. Additionally, there will be a diverse range of equipment and components on display, all relevant to the truck, heavy vehicle, and equipment market.

This year's event is being held concurrently with the Civil Construction Field Days, with show tickets granting visitors access to both exhibitions. This presents a fantastic opportunity to explore the latest developments in both trucks and machinery, all within a single event. Beyond witnessing the newest products and vehicles, such events provide truck owners and operators with an optimal platform to connect with fellow industry members. This offers a space to exchange information, industry insights, and potentially beneficial tips and advice for enhancing their businesses.

One of Jade Truck Loans major equipment lenders, Morris Finance, is a promotional partner of the event. We’re noting that point as a strong hint and reminder to talk to us prior to attending the show to secure a pre-approved truck loan so you are ready to order at the event, should the opportunity present.

Securing Pre-Show Finance

Industry shows and exhibitors are well-known for the enticing "show specials" they offer attendees. These specials can encompass a variety of offerings, such as appealing discounts on purchases made during the event or on orders placed at the exhibition. Although we currently lack specific information on any show specials for BTS21, it's highly likely that there will be lucrative deals awaiting discovery.

The key factor is that without having your financing in place, you might lack the necessary confidence or capability to seize these advantageous offers. This is where Jade's pre-approved truck loans prove to be an ideal solution, ensuring you have the financial readiness to capitalize on these opportunities.
