Showtime approaches for Optrafair

With just one month to go before Optrafair, Chris Bennett spoke to FMO chief executive Malcolm Polley

If you haven't booked your tickets to visit Optrafair there are plenty of reasons to do so, says Malcolm Polley the chief executive of the Federation of Manufacturing Opticians.

The three-day shindig at Birmingham's NEC takes place every two years and Polley argues that it has become so much more than simply a show. Optrafair is still the ideal place to find out about all that is new in frames, lenses and equipment but it is also a meeting of minds for the industry and profession.
