BoothsInquiry Form Process

• We look forward to reviewing your inquiry form. To be considered for the AFO Dealer Room, we ask that you complete the Dealer Inquiry Form.  Due to the high volume of inquiries, we cannot confirm receipt of, or guarantee an immediate response to your inquiry form.  The submission process is electronic; therefore AFO is not responsible for technical issues that may cause your inquiry form to not be received.  Multiple inquiry forms will not improve the chances of being accepted.
  
  
• All fields must be completed and a link to your business/online store must be included in order for your inquiry form to be reviewed.  If a field does not apply to you please indicate with “N/A”.  Any missing information, lack of web links, and/or lack of display images may cause your application to be rejected.  It is at the discretion of AFO to reject an inquiry form if a thorough review of your information cannot be completed.  All inquiry forms will be reviewed in the order received.  Any attempt to reapply will be reviewed in the normal order of receipt and will not be based on your original inquiry form submission date.

• If approved and there is availability, you will receive a Dealer Invitation. If there is no availability and/or your merchandise is not a good fit for AFO for this year, we will try to inform you as such. All information will be retained for potential future events.  Booths will be reserved based on when your deposit and/or full payment is received.  Payment in full is required 21 days prior to Dealer Move-in.
  
  

Inquiry Form Review

• The dealers' merchandise and information will be reviewed by AFO to establish if it follows the Dealer Room Terms and Conditions. All merchandise must adhere to the rules as mentioned above and in the contract.  A dealer may be accepted, but required to remove certain items that do not fall within the rules.

• The dealer must provide an example of the booth display and accompanying merchandise that they will be setting up in the Dealer Room. This will be used to assign booth placement if the dealer is accepted. If a dealer has set up in a Dealer Room before, a photograph will provide the simplest example. If the dealer is setting up a new display, or has not displayed in a Dealer Room before, a photo or drawing of the proposed display will suffice. The dealer may be asked for more detailed explanation or further proof.
