Says John Leyden, Business Development Director of HOMEMAKERS: "The 2014 Cape Homemakers Expo offered visitors a wide variety of home-related products and services ranging from finance to wine racks. Many exhibitors sold out and others generated business leads that will keep them busy for months to come. Our numbers have also increased to just over 37,500, which bodes well for future trading prospects.

"The quality of the exhibits were again of an extremely high standard and we received many comments from visitors that it was our best show ever. We would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to all our exhibitors, visitors, sponsors and service providers for their contribution to the success of this year's expo," Leyden concluded.
