"Closed deals for 6 units at the show!"

At ESS Expo, business gets done. For Finning, the show delivered more than conversations — it delivered contracts. With 21 customer enquiries and 6 confirmed deals on-site, ESS proved once again that it brings the right decision-makers together under one roof.
