“The Gulfood exhibition is very important for us as it gives us a chance to meet all our clients from all around the world,” explained Salem El Gendy, the ECC’s General Manager. “Also, it provides us the opportunity to showcase what’s new for us, which is our artichokes product launch and new markets entry this year.”
El Gendy highlighted that in Gulfood 2010, the volume of visitors was much higher than in any other year. Additionally, he noted that there were visitors from many more nationalities.
“Due to the diversity of visitors and busy nature of the exhibition this year, we were able to establish several new contacts,” explained El Gendy, “And that’s why we explored many new opportunities.”
