Seafood Exposition 2014 – the great Celebration of Fish is behind us

10.05.2014
The European Seafood Exposition 2014 in Brussels brought together tens of thousands of visitors closely associated with the fish industry. As every year, together with our Icelandic partner Borgarplast, we presented our products at our stand, which, as usual, attracted a lot of interest. This edition of Seafood was also an opportunity to meet our customers from all over the world. Dozens of meetings and hundreds of conversations during those 3 days of the fair were tiring but very fruitful.
"Among the visitors to our stand, a large group were customers from Africa, which is a clear signal that the black land is also beginning to fight for its position on the market. We have already taken the first steps to make our company move in this direction, too," said Marcelo Arias from the German branch of FACH-PAK. The icing on the cake, as every year, was the gala dinner at "La Rose Blanche" at Grand Place, where, together with numerous invited partners and customers, we unofficially summed up this year's edition of the fair. It was not without a political accent...

"The constantly growing tension in Europe, caused by the crisis in Ukraine, is not felt here in the Belgian capital today. There is also no question of any crisis in relations with our eastern customers. The best proof of this is the contract signed at the fair with a Russian fish processing giant which placed an order with us for several thousand insulated containers. This is the best proof that in business you are above political sabre-rattling," Sławomir Budrewicz, the owner of FACH-PAK, summed up the participation in the fair.

The European Seafood Exposition in Brussels is the largest trade fair in Europe dedicated to the fish industry. This year, the fair was visited by more than 30,000 people. The next meeting in good company is already on 15-17.05.2015 in Boston, at Seafood Expo North America.
