GSA is the Federal government’s preferred source for quality commercial products and services, and Expo is GSA’s primary customer outreach event. GSA will be hosting the 15th annual International Products and Services Expo June 9 – 11, 2009, in San Antonio, Texas.

Exhibit floor space is available to companies holding a current contract with GSA. Visitor information will be available at a later date.

There will be approximately 750 exhibit booths available to companies that hold current contracts with GSA. The online booth application is a request for booth space at the 2009 GSA Expo. Please allow up to 20 business days for processing applications. Spaces requested are not guaranteed.

** NEW ** This year, we will have one of the U.S. Army’s MRAP (Mine Resistant Ambush Protected) Armored Vehicles on display. This area of the exhibit floor is ideal for those companies displaying products/services that support the U.S. troops in the field. Look for this special section on the exhibit floor space map with the red and blue border!
