Alexey Byvshev, Head of Post-Market Service Department

 

As compared to 2020-2021, this Exposition has been attended by a greater number of visitors. We never expected to see such a large number of people at the Exposition. We worked with customers all the time, we didn’t even have time to rest. About 300 visitors came to us within one day only. Here, at Pharmtech & Ingredients 2022, we also met our old partners. It was nice to meet them, to talk to them personally, to discuss new projects.

We notice profound interest in our products at Pharmtech & Ingredients 2022. This is a strategically important exhibition for us. New customers come to the booth, we receive a lot of new requests. The Exposition gives a chance both to meet new customers, and to find suppliers, to conduct negotiations. There are much more visitors this year than before. Interested visitors attend the booths until 5-6 p.m.

We have been participating in the Exposition for over 20 years. Every year the pharmaceutical industry undergoes various changes, and market environment changes. We highly appreciate that Pharmtech & Ingredients 2022 organisers take such changes into account. The Exposition is an efficient way for customers to find suppliers, and vice versa. Our company regularly expands its presence at it: we started with a 20 square meters booth, now our we have a total of 90 square meters.

REVADA-NEVA

Snezhana Maksimovich, Customer Management Manager

 

This year, Revada-Neva participated in the Exposition for the first time. We think that our debut was a success! There are many visitors, which is encouraging. At the beginning of the Exposition, I had 250 business cards, by the end of Day 2, there were only four left, and my colleagues faced the same situation. Effective meetings were held with the customers we deal with. We always have something to talk about. We hope that the Exposition will lead to new customers, expanded product range, and increased sales volumes. Next year we plan to come to the Exposition again!
