Holiday House Announces 2025 Fall Dates for Technician Training and Equipment Sales Trade Show

Holiday House’s popular event returns September 29–October 2 with a new sales training emphasis and hands-on technical training sessions from top OCS manufacturers.

Holiday House Distributing, the world’s leading supplier of the most popular coffee service (OCS) and vending supplies, has announced that the 2025 fall session of its popular Technician Training and Equipment Sales Trade Show has been scheduled for September 29th to October 2nd in Frisco, Texas.

Tailored for the office coffee service (OCS) industry, this event welcomes suppliers, operators, sales professionals, and technicians for a hands-on training experience,  product showcases, and networking opportunities. All technician participants will receive formal certification upon completion.

Hands-On Training with Top Manufacturers

The show features an incredible opportunity for OCS technicians to learn directly from the industry’s leading equipment manufacturers in a series of small group training sessions. The fall session will feature this impressive list of key suppliers, ready to train OCS technicians – along with key suppliers in the trade show area, who are eager to share product knowledge.

“It’s really an unparalleled opportunity for operators to see their techs elevate their game,” said Barbara Russell, Vice President of Sales & Marketing at Holiday House, in a recent press release. “Some of the larger companies are sending people from multiple regions so they can take what they learn back to each office. When you start considering what it would cost for an operator to send all of their key people directly to the manufacturers for training, it would cost thousands. The value that comes with Holiday House Technician Training and Equipment Sales Trade Show is clear to everyone who attends.”

Participating Manufacturers

Key suppliers are excited to share their product expertise and practical knowledge, alongside training. Attendees will benefit from direct access to a premier lineup of manufacturers and suppliers, including:

New Emphasis on Sales

This year’s event introduces a dedicated sales training track, designed to support sales managers, reps, and OCS operators seeking to boost their selling skills.

“As always, we listen to the attendees, our customers, who understand that the leading OCS salespeople have product, equipment and sales knowledge. We have added this new sales component to elevate sales professionals,” Russell added. “We are already seeing tremendous interest and we will have more to announce about the sales track before the end of June.”

Sales track highlights include:

• A featured presentation by an industry-leading sales trainer
• Sales-focused sessions led by participating manufacturers
• Practical insights into selling OCS equipment and supplies

Low Cost, Big ROI

The cost to attend is just $250, which provides a tremendous value in return, such as:

• Hours of hands-on technical training
• Full access to the trade show
• In-depth sales training sessions
• Meals throughout the event
• Certification for all technician participants

Russell emphasized that the event is not a money-maker for Holiday House. “The fee is designed to offset the food costs,” she said. “That cost includes hours of hands-on training and meals.”

Connection and Certification

In addition to training and sales support, the event promotes industry-wide connection and collaboration. Russell elaborated: “This event is great for the industry, the suppliers, the operators, their salespeople and their technicians, who will each receive a certification. It’s also good for the manufacturers and for Holiday House. Everyone who attends becomes a lot more connected.”
