"The Foire de Paris continues to be a dynamic and unmissable event in the annual calendar, driven as it is by the development of cultural diversity. It gives exhibitors a chance to rejuvenate their businesses each year by encouraging the element of surprise… providing the impetus for self assessment and progress."
Béatrice MONSAN, BABA painter/B.Attitude Exhibitor on "Arts & crafts from France and Europe"
"I would like to accentuate that we were privileged to be a part of the Foire de Paris 2009. We
exhibited our complete line of marble and onyx handcrafted accessories for the first time in this mega event and our experience was astonishing. We particularly are very pleased with the services provided to us by the fair management. The on-ground service was exceptionally organized and the fair managers were tremendously supportive. I must also emphasize that it was so wonderful to meet with the All-enthusiastic Parisians from the various walks of life.
Over all it was an overwhelming experience and we strongly look forward to participate in Foire de Paris for many years ahead"
Akber AMLANI, Director AMLANI ENTERPRISES (Pakistan) Exhibitor on "Riches of the world"
"… it was a brilliant springboard and platform for me. Thanks to the Foire de Paris, I was able to open my own shop in Paris… I had my misgivings but it turned out to be a real success!"
Xénio FANTODJI,
Manager of BLACKOTOP Exhitor on "Tropical islands"
"Stress from all the preparation, new things to organise (logistics, stand, choosing products), the thrill of discovering new opportunities… It was all new to us. And of course there’s the considerable investment involved, which intensified our fear of failure. The first surprise was the sheer size of the fair. It’s the first time we’ve seen so many retailers and customers in such an enormous venue. We were also surprised by the amount of competition in our industry in terms of pricing and local competitors, but we held our own with our unique models.
We felt that the Tropical islands fair offered a really welcoming atmosphere, with very receptive visitors and genuinely friendly customers. To sum it all up, we’d say that this experience was really rewarding on a personal level; on a professional level, we’re also very happy with the accounts."
