ECHOS
Christoph Plank, Commercial Attaché, Austrian Embassy Prague:
“The SALIMA fair is the centre of the food business in the
entire CENTROP region, which covers Slovakia, Hungary,
Austria, Czech Republic, and the south of Poland. For
Austrian companies the opportunity of exhibiting in
Brno is important due to the fact that a large number
of their potential business partners are concentrated
there in one place at one time. The Czech Republic is
the fifth most important business partner of Austria and
the Czech food market offers opportunities for further
development.”
Ing. Vojtěch Halamíček, Marketing Director, Kostelecké uzeniny a.s.:
“When deciding whether to take part and how we had
many goals and expectations and the trade fair has fully
met them all. During the fair our stand was virtually
full to the brim with visitors; we had many promising
meetings and presentations. Last, but not the least, we
had the ambition to win the Golden Salima competition,
which was also a dream come true with our product Hermín.”
Demetra Chrysostomou, Presentation Director, Suricom Consultants:
“The official presentation of Cyprus took place for the
first time this year. The companies see their participation
in a positive way: they were approached by the right
professional visitors – real professional, they made a
satisfactory number of contracts and they will be happy
to come to the next Salima in 2012.”
Alena Dalecká, Head of Managing Director’s Office,
NATURA a.s.
“We see this trade fair as a combination of business and
social event visited by purchasing agents from supermarket chains as well as owners of trade corporations.
The visitors can learn about new products or entire pro-
duct ranges. We were approached by professionals from various catering facilities as well as end
users, all expressing their genuine interest in our products and asking questions.”
Dr. Ing. Emerich Vacek, Marketing Department, Ministry of Agriculture of the Czech Republic:
“This year’s International Food Fairs SALIMA, despite the challenging economic conditions, confirmed the importance of trade fairs as a necessary marketing tool in relation to trade experts as well
as the professional public. Trade fairs are still crucial for making or enhancing business contacts,
and they are also a place for meeting partners from the business sphere and representatives of trade
unions and organisations. For companies, trade fairs offer the opportunity of better analysing of the
situation on the market and comparing the company strategy with the strategy of the competitors.
In the past few years there is a great emphasis on the maximum effect of the presentation with
reasonable costs and ultimate efficiency of all the marketing activities.
We highly appreciate the willingness and professional attitude of the trade fair preparatory team as
well as the service provided by Trade Fairs Brno.”
Marek Soph, Agricultural Assistant of the Dutch Embassy, the Dutch Ministry of Agriculture,
Nature, and Food Quality:
“Our appreciation of the Dutch presentation at SALIMA 2010 is generally positive. The representatives of thirteen companies taking part in a joint exhibition stand at the “Dutch Hall” were all very
satisfied with the technical, organisational, operational, and social aspects of the event provided
by the organising body – the Trade Fairs Brno. They were also happy with the visitor numbers and
structure as well as with the genuine interest of professionals, business people, and lay visitors in
the exhibited commodities. The potential of our participation in SALIMA 2010 for the future development of business activities will be realistically evaluated after some time according to the feedback and the actual performance of the contracts made at SALIMA. At a time of persisting economic
recession or actually crisis our primary expectations were not very optimistic, but our immediate
impression after the fair’s end was almost euphoric and wiped off all of our worries. The exhibition
stand was a special thing in itself – open, airy, modern, stylish, and representative at the same
time – designed and built entirely by the Trade Fairs Brno design and construction team – and undoubtedly was a great contribution to the excellent atmosphere during the entire fair as well as the
overall pleasant impression from our participation.”
Ricky Goh, Pottery-Mart, Singapore:
„For the second time in a run, Singapore was officially represented with a National Pavilion as a
leading Asian country at the show from 2–5 March 2010 and thus was a highlight of the event at
Hall C. It thus gotten quite a good coverage in some media, achieved by our undersigned marketing
campaign through a close working relation with the show main organizer BVV Veletrhy Brno. Thus it
was noteworthy of the scope of support gotten for the SMa led delegation of 7 companies this time
compared to 6 in 2008 with 2 repeat exhibitors from the previous show. Also among the 2010 participants, 2 of the biggest food companies from Singapore, giving the show added endorsement.“

“Our first impressions after the fair are very good. We
appreciated that the fair moved to the new P Hall,
we also noticed an increased interest of the visitors
in new technologies and the clear reflection of the
position of the individual supplying corporations on
the market.”
Ing. Jaromír Gec, Company Director and Secretary
of IREKS ENZYMA s.r.o.
“This fair is still the only opportunity for meeting of
bakers and confectioners in the Czech Republic. The
IREKS ENZYMA exhibition stand was constantly full of
visitors and thanks to this concentration of people we
had the opportunity of leading a direct dialogue with
our customers, which, as we believe, will be highly
beneficial for us in the future.
MBK is great also in another aspect – it is not just
promotion of individual companies but also of the
entire bakers’ and confectioners’ craft.”
Jan Kout, Managing Director, PEKASS s.r.o.
“At the fair alone we made contracts in value of half
a million EUR. The number and interest of the end

consider the participation in the trade fair as an inevitable cost. The fair is a platform for developing relations with our existing clients.”

was again a little bit different from the previous ones. We approached the well-known cooking persona
Zdeněk Pohlreich to help us present our VISION cookers and other cooking equipment. The master chef
attracted to our exhibition stand, and actually to the fair in general, many visitors. His presence at our

fair. It was a true strike home.”
David Pazdera, GO IN AUSTRIA:
„For us as suppliers of equipment for restaurants and hotels the INTECO fair represents an invaluable

Jiří Maděřič, Vinařství Ludvík Maděřič:
“Events such as VINEX are very important for making contact with the client, and the correct dating gives consumers the opportunity of getting acquainted with new
products. When it comes to wine, the direct contact with
the client and the wine maker is indispensable for both
parties: wine lovers have a unique opportunity of learning; both in global and local terms, about the wine assortment, and the wine maker can get their feedback. All
this makes VINEX an ideal meeting platform with relaxed
and informal atmosphere without all sorts of limitations.
The focus on the visitors’ enjoyment and good impression
of attractive setting is the right direction where we would
like the trade fair to go in the future.”
Ing. Pavel Vajčner, Company Director,
Znovín Znojmo a.s.:
“We are regular participants in VINEX, since the first year
we never skipped. We see the fair as an opportunity for
enhancing our business relations and promotion of our
new products.”

INNOVATION OF PACKAGE AS A WAY TOWARDS SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS
The CzechTrade agency held an exceptionally successful seminar at EMBAX 2010 – “Construction
design and branding – the cornerstones for innovation in packaging”, which presented the basic
principles of packaging construction along with interesting real-life case studies and recommendations to producers who wish to attract their customers by a unique package that becomes an icon
for their brand.
ECHOS
Jiří Jarolímek, Trade and Marketing Specialist of Macron Systems, spol. s r. o.:
“This year’s EMBAX was successful for us. After the break-up of the fair there is the packaging sector, which is represented by our main clients. The clientele here was different than at the previous
fairs, there were fewer visitors, but on the other hand the business and contracts we made seem
much more promising. We were worried about the general outlook of this year’s fair, but in fact we
were pleasantly surprised. We met some new potential clients therefore from this point of view the
presentation was a success for us.”
Jan Gottfried, Secretary of the Institute of Economics and Management Systems at the Mining
and Geological Faculty of VŠB-Technical University Ostrava (International RFID Lab):
“We are very satisfied with our participation in EMBAX fair, our presentation had a great feedback.
There were people from companies such as Nestlé, Kraft, dairy corporations, packaging experts and
others who were interested in co-operation possibilities with our laboratory. We talked to many
people who were, at least, interested in the RFID topic. For the promotion and popularisation of
the technology this was really great, especially with the Packaging Live project, which gave us the
opportunity to practically demonstrate the advantages of RFID.”
Jan Korčák, Managing and Marketing Manager, JIP – Papírny Větřní, a.s.:
“The combination of EMBAX and SALIMA was a good idea. It does have its logic and EMBAX has a
new esprit now. There are new people coming in from the sphere of our potential customers and we
can also promptly make contact with the other exhibitors. We invited our business partners to our
stand – companies from the Czech Republic as well as from England, Italy, Germany, and France –
these are the most important markets for us. We also managed to make a good number of new contacts from the food industry, mainly processing companies. In comparison to the previous EMBAX
fair there were much more visitors therefore we are satisfied.”
Pavel Ondrášek, MBA, ONDRÁŠEK INK - JET SYSTEM:
„My assessment of our participation in the fair is a positive one. Our company was very satisfied cooperating with Trade Fairs Brno. Thanks to our participation in the Packaging Live project we had
the opportunity to enhance our co-operation with our business partners. I would also like to express
my thanks specifically to the exhibition stand construction team, who were very helpful and quick
in satisfying our demands.“
