Great Lakes Logging & Heavy Equipment Expo:
GLTPA’s Great Lakes Logging & Heavy Equipment Expo, often labeled the “Loggers Holiday”
is THE venue for Midwest loggers, truckers, sawmills, construction and forestry equipment.
Many new and previous exhibitors use this unique trade show to unveil state-of-the-art
equipment or technology to their customers, while
others display the quality of their long-standing
product. Every exhibitor offers something special
to share to make their booth stand out in a
busy venue.
