Biz X Was There – The 7th Annual Mama & Family Expo April 29, 2023

The 7th annual Mama & Family Expo took place April 29, 2023 at the Giovanni Caboto Club, 2175 Parent Avenue in Windsor.

The sponsored event was presented by Three Lambs Registry & Baby Boutique and targeted parents, moms-to-be and their families in Windsor Essex.

Organizers of the event know that parenting can be tough and they want parents to know they are not alone and they have you covered as do the local businesses and organizations who were in attendance. The day offers a chance for all to be social, shop, learn and be pampered. It’s part parenting expo, part shopping mall and part spa!

Teanna McKay, Producer of The Mama & Family Expo, is proud of the relationship they have built with the community over the years.

“The Mama & Family Expo has a proven track record and we continue to strive to make our Expo and parenting event stand out as a leader in our community for a place to find top products, businesses and service providers for parents and their families,” she expresses. “We seek new and innovative partners who will improve our event and further our mission of providing a social experience through offering shopping, pampering, services, sampling and other activities.”

The Mama & Family Expo 2023 highlights included . . .

80+ exhibitors offering retail items, food samples, pampering, consults, swag, interactive activities, and demos!
Kid Zone full of activities
Handmade with Love Vendors
Comfort Lounges
Private Infant Changing Area

A portion of Mama Expo ticket sales will be donated to the Ronald McDonald House Charities Southwestern Ontario. Since 1985 the organization has been a home away from home for families of sick children.

As both an author and a book podcaster, I love how BizX supports local writers and creative artists of all types. They do awesome articles on the local creative community and their work, and their publication's reach really helps small publishers and independents get the word out. Thanks BizX! Keep up the great work!

I recently had the pleasure of reading this month's BizX magazine and I must say that I was impressed with the valuable information it contained. The magazine's focus on promoting small local businesses was evident in the articles and features it included.One of the most impressive aspects of BizX magazine is the way in which it highlights the stories of various local businesses and business events. The magazine includes articles and interviews with business owners, profiles of successful entrepreneurs, and in-depth coverage of local events that showcased the vibrant business community in the area.Moreover, the magazine provides practical advice and tips for local businesses to help them grow and succeed. From marketing strategies to financial planning, the magazine's content is always highly relevant and informative for business owners.It is clear that BizX magazine is committed to helping local businesses thrive, not just by providing them with exposure but by also offering them the tools and resources they need to succeed. The magazine also helps foster a sense of community among local business owners by providing a platform for them to connect and collaborate.Overall, I highly recommend BizX as a business magazine to anyone looking to support the local business community and stay informed about the latest trends and developments and events in the area.

The staff at Biz X Magazine is not only professional but super helpful for those who are looking to advertise and be more present in Windsor Essex county. They have truly given me a great deal of exposure and I can’t thank them enough!

Deborah and the Biz X team are not only a group of people who work together, they are the spirit of Windsor's community, business essence and bringing social awareness. As a new member of this beautiful city, it was through Biz X magazine that I learned who is who and where is where. I attended their 25th Anniversary Gala in 2022 and what a fantastic evening. Everything, from the sparkling decor, glam photos, entertainment, guest speakers and our own Windsor fire department fundraising for Sparky's Toy Drive, was a true celebration. Thank you Deborah, and the team, for all your hard work. Continue to raise that bar of success throughout 2023!

Biz X Magazine is a staple in our community. It's such a quick way to stay informed about what's going on around town. We love that you can find it in most waiting rooms too! We don't typically advertise but we do like to show our support especially when it comes to Awards time! We are honoured to have been nominated throughout the years and as past winners of the Biz X Awards, we try to help out and advertise especially during that issue! Deborah does so much for our community! She is such a sweet and hard-working woman!

What can I say about Deborah Jones? She is one of the kindest and hard working people out there. Her work ethic is impeccable. She, as well as BIz X magazine have supported my mission to help others. Because of her and many, my name is getting out there. Deborah, I owe you so much. You are selfless and I just wanted to tell you my friend that I appreciate you more than you know. Keep flourishing in all you do. Your magazine is the absolute BEST! And so are you.

Biz X Magazine continues to tell local stories in a time when local Canadian journalism is disappearing at a frightening rate. Small business is the life blood of our community, yet major news outlets only have the capacity to cover a fraction of our communities local business news.New openings, new offerings, big milestones, new trends - Biz X is a constant source of information aggregated nowhere else in our region, and there is no better companion to find in waiting rooms across Essex County.Deb and her team truly care about entrepreneurs and their efforts to grow and thrive in Windsor-Essex. I believe it's that unshakeable passion that has cemented this magazine as an institution in our community, and is just one of many reasons why I am always excited to pick up their latest copy!
