KIRKLEES firms are set for a boost to their 2010 trading efforts.

The Kirklees branch of the Federation of Small Businesses is staging a mini-trade show tonight to help give member companies a boost in trade early on in the year.

And the success of exhibitor bookings has caused the organisers to move the venue to the Galpharm Stadium to accommodate the exhibitors and visitors with better facilities.

The event will take place from 7pm to 9pm when more than 30 of the exhibitors will each put on a special offer exclusive to visitors of the show.

Exhibitors will include IT experts, accountants, engineering companies, retailers and service providers. Entry and parking are free to visitors and no pre-registration is necessary.

Rick Robbins, event organiser, said: "We would urge everyone who lives in Kirklees or does business in the district to come along."
