Exhibiting abroad multiplies everything that can go wrong at home: shipping, customs, venue regulations in another language, and a build crew you have never met. Mercer removes all of it.
As a UK-based exhibition stand builder Europe exhibitors use for shows across the continent, we manage design, production, logistics and installation as one project with one point of contact, so exhibiting in Paris or Barcelona feels no more complicated than exhibiting in Birmingham.
Exhibition Stand Design works exactly as it does for our UK projects: your brief, your objectives and your floor space shape a stand built around your brand, with initial concepts in as little as 5 working days, plus a free 3D visual with every quote and comprehensive CAD renders for sign-off before production. European shows add one more design consideration, and it plays to our strengths: because every build is engineered on the beMatrix frame system, the stand that works at a UK show can be reconfigured for a different footprint at a European one, without a second design bill. For brands exhibiting across several countries, that also means identical branding at every event.
Recent international work includes ICE Barcelona and a partnership with Informa Connect as stand contractors for Network X at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles.
Production and print happen at our own UK facility, with quality checked before anything ships. From there we manage the parts that make international exhibiting stressful: transport and customs paperwork, venue liaison, organiser regulations and delivery windows, with construction handled by our own installation teams on site. You deal with one UK-based project manager throughout, in your time zone and your language, with a live portal keeping the whole project visible.
Plenty of stand companies across Europe can build you a stand locally; the difference with a single contractor covering Europe and the UK is accountability. One team owns the result, wherever the show is.
All our stands are supplied on a hire basis, which matters even more internationally: we build, ship, install and hand over, then dismantle and bring everything back after the show. You never own, store or re-export hardware. You fly out, exhibit and fly home; the build, quality checks and breakdown all happen without you.
