Celebrating its 40th Anniversary of being the original regional trade show, the Southeast Building Conference (SEBC) was held on August 16-17, 2018 in Kissimmee, Florida and continues to be the place to grow the building industry.

“We are proud to have celebrated this milestone with a sold-out show,” says Drew Smith, SEBC Committee Chairman and Chief Operating Officer of Two Trails Sustainable Building Consultants, Florida. “It’s amazing to know that what started as an idea over 40 years ago, has grown to become one of the most sought after industry events in the Southeast.”

The expo showcased regional and international distributors such as Bosch, BPS, Inc., GE Appliances, Delta Faucet Company, James Hardie, and many more. Attendees had access to a higher quantity of exhibitors and exceptional quality of engagement.

“Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the original regional building industry trade show is an honor,” says Kimberly Scott, SEBC Director. “It is a testimony for how SEBC remains focused on the needs of builders, trade partners, and exhibitors to make their businesses successful.”

In addition to a sold out expo hall, 5,500 registered attendees had access to over 60 hours of education provided by industry leaders.
