Well as in the movies against all odds the good guys win at last and get the girl (or the show).

So as since 2007 the Executive Inn has new owners and they finaly got rid of the wannabe show-promoter and ex-owner of the hotel Mr. Rampal Yadaf we will have a fresh start in 2009 ! When you go to the Executive Inn now, you already will notice a lot of changes, as no tents blocking the parking lot, new banners, a remodeled hotel, a bar and a restaurant where you would like to hang out, with nightly entertainment, good food, good beer etc....
Rooms are signed up quickly for 2009. Take your pick now and contact our new show manager.

Just in case you can not get hold of Tony or its more convenient for you because of the time difference to the USA.

We are working to get up our own website under www.eigmfs.com. Unfortunately I can not do that myself because of lack of time as I have to run my own business to make a living.
The idea is to get a more interactive site with online registration as dealer, online payments (via Paypal) and an interactive
list of exhibitors like in the following (primitive) preview version.

Yes we are working on advertising ! Here are our first samples of artwork which will be used for full page advertising and to make flyers and banners to advertise our show at the Saint-Mariex-aux-Mines Show in France coming up by the end of June ( look under www.minerapole.com ) which is at least the #2 in Europe (after Munich) and #3 in the world - As you may guess Tucson is still #1 !

Executive  Inn  Show  of  2006  on  YOUTUBE



This videoclip is about the historic events of 2006 which caused finaly a great number of dealers to leave the Executive Inn Show for good.
It aired on channel 4 NBC / KVOA Tucson on Thursday February 9th 2006 at the 6 o´clock  evening news.

As you should know Mr. Yadaf is not the hotel owner anymore neither is he the show promoter.
There have also been newspaper articles about the problems. I have been told that one of the headlines was "Extra charge for toilet paper".
Anyway I could not get hold of any copies of the newspapers as they had miraculously disappeared completely from the newsstands around the hotel.
More "history"  in details about our Executive Inn Show will follow in the future on this website.


See
you in Tucson 2009 !
