The draw was carried out by professional Del Boy and Patsy from Absolutely Fabulous look-a-likes at the Heritage Motor Museum, Gaydon in Warwickshire.
The draw followed a conference hosted by the Construction Equipment Association and the leading brands represented were Ammann, Case, Hyundai, JCB, New Holland, Terex, Thwaites, Volvo, Wacker Neuson, Bomag, Manitou and Merlo.
The draw was for the maxi/anchor stands at Plantworx 2013 – these are the largest stands available and strategically placed around the showground to maximise both exhibitor and visitor experience.
Rob Oliver, CEO of the CEA said, “’The Grand Stand Draw for the allocation of the maxi stands very clearly demonstrates the commitment that 12 major construction companies are making to Plantworx 2013 and based on this commitment we now have a very firm base around which we will continue to build the event.
“We are very pleased to have achieved this commitment 18 months ahead of the event and is a very clear indication of the construction industry’s desire to hold Plantworx with its working demonstrations.”
