Turnkey stand
A turnkey stand-building agency that designs, builds and installs your bespoke stand, while you focus on your meetings.
Tired of juggling designer, fabricator and fitter?
A rented stand everyone recognises
Standard modules reused by dozens of exhibitors, without an ounce of your brand identity.
As many contacts as problems
Design, fabrication, logistics and assembly scattered: when a detail goes wrong on site, no one answers for it.
Extra charges that surface on the day
A vague quote and build-up overruns turn a controlled budget into a nasty surprise at the show.

What is a turnkey exhibition stand builder?
A turnkey exhibition stand builder gathers every trade your stand needs under one roof: the designer who shapes the space, the workshop that builds it and the project manager who coordinates logistics, build and dismantling. The craft of the stand builder spans that entire chain, where a mere manufacturer only delivers a structure. For your trade show booth, that means a single point of responsibility and an overall budget approved before manufacturing begins, with no hidden line discovered on site. Browse our achievements to see what a contractor that genuinely builds in-house actually delivers.
Turnkey contractor or multiple suppliers: what are the consequences?
| Turnkey stand builder | Multiple suppliers | |
|---|---|---|
| Points of contact | A single project manager | One contact per trade |
| Responsibility | One signature, from sketch to removal | Diluted: on site, nobody answers for the detail that goes wrong |
| Lead times | Schedule managed in-house, integrated workshop | Every delay cascades down the chain |
| Design consistency | The approved 3D drives the manufacturing directly | The brief is reinterpreted at every link |
| Hidden costs | Overall budget locked before the first cut | Extra costs surface during the build |
| Indicative budget | €600 to €1,500 per m² all-in for bespoke | Added up quote by quote, and rarely any cheaper |

What an integrated stand builder changes at your show
You stop refereeing between suppliers
Design, manufacturing, logistics and build sit with one team: a problem gets one owner, not a round of buck-passing.
Your budget is locked in advance
The overall figure is approved before the first cut: no extra line appears mid-project.
Your stand stays true to the 3D
The workshop that builds is the one that modelled: materials, colours and finishes match the approved renders.
You stay focused on your clients
Transport, show regulations, build then dismantling: we carry the technical load while you prepare your meetings.

What our clients say
“Three shows this year and not one coordination meeting on my side. The project manager absorbed everything, even the electrical surprise in Frankfurt.”
Richard N. Sales Director“The budget signed upfront is the one on the final invoice. After years of extra costs discovered during the build, that changes everything.”
Laura M. Trade Shows & Events Manager“The stand delivered was an exact copy of the 3D render, right down to the shade of the counters. Our team could not believe it.”
Edward G. Owner of an industrial SMEFrequently asked questions
Design, manufacturing, fit-out, decoration, transport, assembly and dismantling. An all-in-one service with a single point of contact.
The stand builder coordinates the whole project, linking design, manufacturing and installation, and ensures the organiser's deadlines are met.
Yes. Based in Paris, we work across France and worldwide through our logistics partners.
Budget on roughly 300 to 600 €/m² for a reusable modular stand and 600 to 1,500 €/m² for a premium bespoke stand, assembly and logistics included. 3D design alone is billed as a fixed fee of 800 to 3,000 €. The price depends above all on the materials, the level of finish and the real scope of the turnkey service.
The best Parisian stand-building agencies are recognised by three signs: an integrated fabrication workshop, a consistent portfolio of bespoke projects, and a genuinely turnkey service from design to dismantling. Decore Studio Events, a stand-building agency based in Paris, designs and fabricates bespoke black-and-white stands in-house, in France and worldwide.
In 2026, stands rely on restraint, fine materials and clean lines, with strong palettes such as black and white. Reuse is taking over: bespoke structures are designed to be reassembled from one show to the next, in an eco-responsible logic that reduces waste and cost per event. Lighting and product staging take precedence over an overload of messages.
A stand manufacturer assembles the structure in the workshop. A stand builder goes further: it designs the project, coordinates fabrication, fit-out, logistics, assembly and dismantling. A turnkey stand-building agency like Decore Studio Events brings all these trades together under a single responsibility, leaving you one point of contact from the first sketch to the removal of the stand.
Stop assembling suppliers. Start entrusting it all to one agency.
List your shows and the level of image you are aiming for: we design, build and install a turnkey bespoke stand, one point of contact from sketch to dismantling. Detailed quote within 48h.
