One feature of the Rockingham County Fair is the vendor fair for local businesses. The new local business Edible Arrangements is at the fair to advertise.
“The booth has definitely already paid off,” worker Brittany Davis said.
Their booth cost $400. As an incentive, the booth offered free fruit samples and had a drawing every night to win one of their unique fruit bouquets.
Another local business that came to the fair to advertise their services was Rockingham Memorial Hospital. They have been present at the vendor fair for over twenty years.
“It makes people aware of services they may not have known we offered,” booth worker Susan Miller said.
The hospital offered free BMI, glucose, cholesterol, and blood pressure screenings as well as water bottles at the booth. Overall businesses say they enjoy the benefits the fair offers in advertising.
