Voices of the exhibitors
Ethiopia has a huge potential because of the growing market and the population size. We as Krones aim to build long-term partnerships with our local branch office that opened in 2018.
The customers and visitors come from a diverse background of sectors. We are happy with everyone who took the time to meet us here at agrofood & plastprintpack Ethiopia. Even outside the beverage sector, we will partner with many visitors who are interested in our video yet printers.
Our expectations were met. We had good conversions and we are looking forward to participate in the future to network and build opportunities and long-standing partnerships on eye-level.
