» Abreu online's presence at BTL 2012 |
In consequence of the participation in BTL 2012, with the stand 3A20 in pavilion 3, there are a couple of ideas to be retained from the event. Apart from the affluence being less in comparison to past years, it was an excellent opportunity for our contract and sales managers to meet their clients and suppliers. It's in this kind of events that new contacts are made and new horizons are open. There is indeed interest in the destination Portugal, such as the part of the Emirates, were Abreu online has a great know-how. This event was particularly advantageous in identifying the needs of customers. |

» Abreu online at Brazil’s stand |
Abreu online Brazil was also present this year in Brazil's stand (BTL guest country), was ruled by a pleasant surprise in the field of visitors (contacts), not only done with Abreu online Brazil's status but as surprise as it may seem, on an international level (Europe and Africa) we were sought for possible partherships by more than 30 professionals visitors.
Abreu online's table was strategically placed in the center of Brazil's stand, being easily accessed and very close to DMC Brazil's counter, allowing the exchange of some of the profissional visitors according to the type of deal/ partnership with they were looking for and proceed to some reunions.
Abreu online's participation was classified as being very productive and profitable. |
