HOW IT STARTED Association of Event Vendors Nigeria (ASSEV)
Sometimes late 2012,some group of friends (events related) came together with the intention of disseminating information regarding events industry. Their sole aim was to
i. bring every events planners together for a fast information
ìí. Introduce trending items and procurement process
iii. Teach and guide where necessary.
iv. Easy accessing items among members in the case of leaving your location to another far end of state.
v. Price regulations of items among members of the group.
vi. Having an expo/showcasing of current items where we can buy/sell new items among our members.
vi. Roll out future investment scheme for members (which my later be used for land and building, bus or car procurement)
vii. Health issuance packages etc.
These later,metamorphosised into bringing other vendors among us which then triggered the group to switch name from then EPF (EVENT PLANNERS FORUM TO ASSEV, ASSOCIATION OF EVENTS VENDORS NIGERIA.
With as many vendors among us, our intention was to maintained job in the circle. Never outsource vendors outside the circle except otherwise.
These worked so well for us and it quickly project the group beyond our expectations.
In the short period of time, we were able to capture as much members as possible across the states in Nigeria and beyond.
