About Propshop – Leading Exhibition Stand Builders in the United Kingdom
Wembley, London HA9 9RZ, United Kingdom
Get Directions ↗A trade show stand has one job: to earn attention in a crowded hall and start the right conversations. At Propshop, we treat every project as a business brief, not a decorative exercise. As established exhibition stand builders serving Indian and international brands in the UK, we combine strategic design, precision fabrication and disciplined project management to create stands that perform from the first hour of the show to the last.
Our UK office in Wembley, London places a dedicated project team within easy reach of ExCeL, Olympia and the wider national venue network, including the NEC Birmingham. Supported by our own production facility in India, we manage design, manufacturing, freight and installation under one roof. Indian exhibitors get a Hindi or English-speaking project manager, and global clients get one point of contact from brief to dismantling.
Whether you need a fully bespoke build, a modular system or an upgraded shell scheme, we recommend the solution that fits your objectives and budget. Our work also extends across Europe, with recent stands delivered in Cologne, Nuremberg and Milan, so a single partner can support your entire exhibition calendar, wherever your company is based.
In-House Manufacturing
Every stand is produced in our own facility, giving us direct control over quality, finish and delivery timelines.
Schedule Discipline
We plan each project backwards from your build-up window, so your stand is complete and show-ready before doors open.
3D Visualisation
Review and refine your exhibition stand design in photorealistic 3D before production begins.
Single Point of Contact

From Brief to Show Day: Our UK Exhibition Stand Process
A structured six-stage process gives you clarity, control and a dedicated project manager at every step.
01
Briefing & Venue Review
We begin by understanding your objectives, audience, budget and timeline. We then review the organiser's exhibitor manual so every design decision respects the venue's height, rigging and power regulations.
02
3D Concept Development
Our designers produce a photorealistic 3D stand covering layout, branding, lighting and visitor flow. We refine the concept with you until it is fully approved.
03
Scope & Approval
The final scope, specification, schedule and GBP cost are documented and agreed before production starts.
04
Fabrication & Quality Control
Your stand is manufactured in our facility, pre-assembled and inspected against the approved design before dispatch.
05
Freight & Customs Guidance
We manage packing, documentation and delivery within the organiser's access window, and advise on temporary import paperwork such as ATA Carnets where required.
06
Installation, Support & Dismantling
Our crew assembles the stand, completes lighting, graphics and AV, and carries out final checks before doors open. After the show, we dismantle and clear to the venue schedule.

How to Choose an Exhibition Stand Builder in the UK
The right contractor protects your budget, your schedule and your brand. Use these five criteria to evaluate any supplier.
A credible contractor will raise height limits, rigging, power and access times for your specific hall before you ask.
Builders who design and manufacture under one roof offer tighter quality control and clearer accountability. Treat outsourced fabrication with caution.
Design, logistics, customs, installation and dismantling are best handled by one team, which reduces handovers and risk.
Insist on a full scope covering extras such as power, rigging and furniture. Vague quotes are where unexpected costs appear.
Ask for recent projects, client references and repeat business. Evidence from real shows is the best indicator of capability.

Exhibition Stand Builders UK: Your Questions Answered
An exhibition stand builder designs, manufactures, transports and installs your stand at a trade show. At Propshop we also manage venue documentation, on-site support and dismantling, so you work with a single team from concept to completion.
Cost depends on stand size, design complexity, materials, lighting, AV and the venue. London shows typically cost more than regional ones. We provide an itemised quotation in GBP covering design, build, freight, installation and dismantling, so you can compare options accurately.
We recommend starting 3 to 4 months before the show to allow for design, approvals, production, shipping and installation planning. Large or double-deck stands benefit from 5 to 6 months. If your show is closer than that, contact us and we will advise on what is achievable.
A shell scheme is the most economical way to exhibit, but it offers limited differentiation. A custom stand gives you your own layout, branding and visitor flow. An upgraded shell scheme or modular stand provides a strong middle ground for tighter budgets.
We build at ExCeL London, NEC Birmingham, Olympia London, SEC Glasgow, Manchester Central, EICC Edinburgh and regional centres including Harrogate, Telford and Liverpool ACC. Each design is planned around the venue's height, rigging and power regulations.
Yes. We prepare the documents organisers typically require, including risk assessments and method statements (RAMS), structural information for double-deck stands, and electrical and fire-safety certification, in line with the exhibitor manual and CDM 2015.
Yes. Overseas exhibitors are assigned a dedicated project manager who can communicate in Hindi or English. Our Wembley, London office supports venue coordination and show-week requirements, so your project runs smoothly without you managing it from abroad.
We pack and ship your stand to arrive within the organiser's access window and support you with export and UK import documentation. Where goods are imported temporarily, we can advise on options such as an ATA Carnet.
