NEW YORK— The International Society of Hospitality Purchasers (ISHP), a professional association representing more than $3 billion in purchasing power, reported that its membership is rallying behind support of the International Hotel/ Motel & Restaurant Show (IH/M&RS) being held in New York, November 10-13, 2001. “Following the September 11 tragedy, we took an unofficial poll of our members and find that more intend to attend IH/M&RS than ever before,” said Alan Benjamin, ISHP president and president of Benjamin West. The 86th annual IH/M&RS will feature more than 1,900 hospitality industry suppliers and attracts approximately 58,000 in total trade attendance.
