Exhibitor opinions
For Grundfos, Aqua-Therm Kyiv went very well. Bearing in mind that we hadn’t taken part in this event for the lasttwo years, our expectations were not just met - they were exceeded. It is good that the percentage of professionalvisitors at Aqua-Therm Kyiv has considerably increased over the past couple of years. We made a lot of newcontacts for business development – design and installation organisations, specialised construction companies,general contractors, and project owners. Grundfos will very likely be taking part in Aqua-Therm Kyiv 2014.

in Ukraine
Aqua-Therm Kyiv is the largest industry exhibition in Ukraine. This is the sixth time now that Soler & Palau Ukraine has exhibited at the show, and it will continue to do so in the future. Exhibiting is always effective. We sign 30% of all our contracts and acquire new clients and partners here –designers, retailer and dealer representatives, and others.Marian Yurkiv, Director of Tekhkomplekt, the official Ukrainian representation of Soler & Palau
The exhibition went extremely well for the company. We collected over 500 forms from potential clients. We have already prepared major supply proposals for industrial companies, and we are preparing equipment shipments. Interest in our brands also grew among household consumers. We want to take part in Aqua-Therm Kyiv 2014, and we aim to expand our presence and have the best stand in the pavilion. This is the largest sector exhibition in Ukraine and the only one that suits us in terms of volume and results for the company.Konstantin Golovan, Director, Kitano

This is our 3rd or 4th time at AQUATHERM Kyiv. We choose to exhibit here as it is the biggest exhibition in Ukraine for Ventilation &Heating. AQUATHERM Kyiv is a good place to build your presence in the Ukraine market and to find a distributer here in Ukraine.

AQUATHERM Kyiv is an important place for us to launch new products, meet new customers and support our distributers. The Ukrainemarket is growing so we believe that it is a good place to invest our money and our trust. We choose AQUATHERM as it’s a focusedexhibition where our main competitors also choose to come.
Frank Baumann- General Manager
EXPOTEC (German National Group organiser)
‘Made in Germany’ is a very strong branding here in Ukraine. Ukrainian people love ‘Made in Germany’ products. Our products are moreexpensive but very good quality so the German companies have a very good chance to make business here. We have been bringing agroup here for more than 10 years; it is still a very relevant market for Germany companies. I have spoken with 28 of my companies andthey are very satisfied. AQUATHERM Kyiv is a good positioned trade show and a real B2B show which is very important for the exhibitors.

The exhibition was very active. The results can be assessed at the end of the season, but it’s clear now that a lot of potential clients came. A lot of representatives of builders and designers, as well as construction managers – their recommendation is very important for the buyer.

We exhibit in many exhibitions throughout the world - In the CIS countries we prefer to exhibit in AQUATHERM because it is specialisedto our industry. Ukraine is a good market to enter as it is still close to Europe so if a company wants to get market share in such a bigcountry not so far from Europe it’s a good market to enter

We are a group of companies from Greece and Romania.Ukraine is a developing market and we want to be one of the first companies to come here.

I know this exhibition very well. This is the 3rd/4th time we are bringing an Italian group. I understand that this exhibition is an importantone for my companies. We have been to many of the other AQUATHERMS so I know the brand very well. Ukraine is a very importantmarket it is the door between Europe and Russia. Its location next to Europe makes it well positioned. It is a big market with 50/60million people living here. I believe and trust in this market. We have some clients that exhibited at our first AQUATHERM Kyiv and havemade a good presence in the market, they still exhibit today. You have to commit to a few years of exhibiting, you need to have abusiness plan.
Elena Novikova, Sales Director

A great deal of business meetings with partners and clients took place at the ‘Friends Cafe’ at our stand. We tried to give the maximum possible amount of time to each visitor, to make contact at the exhibition as effective as possible for business. Managers, directors and designers were among the visitors. This year, we gave a group presentation at our stand for regional delegations that our regional offices brought.
