The Italian 323 Samoter and 160 Asphaltica 2014 joint exhibition run in Verona, Italy attracted in excess of 40,000 visitors. According to the organisers, the response to the jointly run shows reveals signs of steady recovery for the European market. Of those visitors some 15% came from outside Italy and from 55 countries in all. The top ten nations represented in terms of attendance were France, Germany, Switzerland, USA, The UK, Russia, Slovenia, China, Brazil and Spain. There were 445 exhibiting companies (106 from 27 countries) over a total gross area of 50,000m2 attending the 29th Samoter and 7th Asphaltica, shows.
"Being at the service of the business system is our mission and, once again, we have proven this with facts by providing companies in construction and road sectors effective answers for a recovery after six years of intense crisis. We are now looking at our next commitment, EXPO Construções - the new show promoted by our subsidiary Veronafiere do Brasil, scheduled next 5-7 November in Espirito Santo State, where investments worth about €3 billion are planned in the construction industry through to 2017," said the president of Veronafiere, Ettore Riello.
"Right from tomorrow, we will start working with associations and companies on the 30th edition of Samoter, already scheduled 22-25 February 2017.
"The decline on the market in recent years has diminished the number of companies but not the quality of the offering and contacts; indeed, we noticed attendance by operators who had not been in Italy or on this market for many years. For us, it was a good show," said the president of Italian equipment manufacturing body2539 Unacea, Enrico Santini.
