TESTIMONIALS

"Visitors coming to our stand usually perfectly knew what they were interested in. Business meetings at the stand were short and efficient. The match making session played an important role in market recognition and making first business contacts." 
National Poultry Council (Poland)

"Our experience has been very good, so many buyers have been interested in our product from the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Iran. They would like to be our distributor and will come visit our company in Izmir to sign the deals. So hopefully very shortly our products will be in either the UAE or Saudi Arabia."
Citir Fincan (Turkey)

"If you want to see HoReCa, you will see 5-star hotels and high-profile clients especially relevant to the seafood industry which is a growing industry. It is a government supported exhibition and we have been exhibiting for the last 3 years."
The Deep Seafood (UAE)
