With increases of over 47 percent in exhibitors, 44 percent in attendees and 36 percent in brokers from the 2017 regional meetings, the American Association of Commercial Finance Brokers (AACFB) Commercial Financing Expo was a resounding success.

As the only association by brokers for brokers, the AACFB (formerly the NAELB) provided brokers a unique opportunity to connect to a wide variety of funding sources both during and before the Expo through AACFB’s "Meet the Funder" online seminars.

The theme of the Expo, “Expand Your Reach,” was realized by all who participated as noted by Sheri Bancroft, AACFB President, “The AACFB is excited about the success of its inaugural Expo! It opened the door to new brokers as well as provided opportunities for all brokers to expand their reach and grow their businesses!”

Her views, shared by many of the attendees at the show, can be seen in the video below as well as the following:
