Submit Your Product to the 2018 Innovative HME Retail Product Awards

ATLANTA (July 31, 2018)—The Innovative HME Retail Product Awards, sponsored by HomeCare Magazine, are back. The purpose of the competition is to recognize products that contribute to providers’ bottom lines though cash sales.

Past years have yielded some truly worthy winners, and Medtrade organizers are looking to up the ante in 2018 by attracting more entrants than ever before. “We have been pleased with our finalists in previous years, but too often we hear about exhibitors who did not know about the awards,” says Kevin Gaffney, group show director, Medtrade. “We’re glad that great products are out there on the show floor, but these same products should get their shot at glory.”

Judges will select eight finalists from the initial pool of entrants, and reps from these finalists will describe their products during a session scheduled for Monday, October 15, from 1:00 p.m.—2:00 p.m. Attendees and judges will then cast their vote to crown three winners.

“If you know of a Medtrade exhibitor with a great retail product, spread the word,” Gaffney said. The entrance fee is $199. Companies with an appropriate retail product in the New Product Pavilion [NPP] may also enter the awards, and their entrance fee would be waived. Companies that enter the awards and pay their fee may also choose to display in the New Product Pavilion at a discounted rate.
