Flying the Firth flag
Getting in front of our customers and prospective customers to understand their needs is a key part of what we do at Firth. Here’s where we have been flying the flag for Firth:
Auckland Home Show - 10 - 13 September 2026
For the first time in 15 years the Firth team were out in force saying hi to customers and introducing new people to our extensive range of masonry products at Auckland’s annual Home Show held at the Auckland Showgrounds.
“The stand looked awesome with lots of positive feedback and engagement with people,” says Wade Hargreaves, Senior Product Marketing Manager for Firth. “We also supplied a lot of retaining product for the gardening show case outside which also looked amazing.”
Manned by many of the Firth team over the three days, they spent the time talking to people about Firth’s extensive range of masonry products.
