Exhibitor Testimonials
We had meetings with 3 companies. Our talks with these companies are still ongoing. We met a company from Colombia with whom we have exchanged offers. The Matchmaking app was very good, it is an instrument that definitely needs to be pushed forward during the pandemic.
Sercan Ertürk Balarısı Gıda
I think the matchmaking app is very successful tool. We met companies that were interested in our products. Our meetings with 4 companies from various regions such as Colombia and Romania are still proceeding.The app shows a lot of promise, and we are thankful because this extra opportunity was offered to us free of charge since we thought we would only participate at the exhibition.
Ahmet Kadıoğlu Hayfene Spices
Buyers from Poland and Azerbaijan, with whom we had meetings, were high-quality with purchasing powers. I am familiar to the app because I used it last year too. When you are face-to-face at the exhibition, you only get to do business with perhaps one or two people out of a thousand. What is really important is to have met the people you will do business when the conditions are right, and staying in touch with them.”
