After attending several key European trade exhibitions, Safe Europe plc reports several interested parties are considering distributor status in both Germany and the Benelux countries.

According to Paul Marriott, Operations Director at Safe Europe plc, “the proven benefits of Monityre, in terms of improved fuel economy and its green credentials, are equally as important to operators across Europe as well as here in the UK. Already we have attracted interest in our product from certain European countries and we are now a position to make further ongoing distributor appointments throughout Europe.”

Citexpo Attendance Over 10% Higher Than 2007 Show

International News, Product News

As the opening day of Shanghai’s Citexpo 2008 tyre exhibition drew to a close, Wilko Fong director of the organising company Reliable Exhibitions told Tyres & Accessories that the 2009 show is already 60 per cent booked. 2008’s show is proving to be as bustling as ever with 300-plus exhibitors and visitors numbers (based on pre-registration indicators) up between 10 and 15 per cent compared with the 2007 show.

Wilko Fong is hoping that the nine, which represents long life according to Chinese numerology, will be Reliable’s lucky number in relation to next year’s show, which is scheduled to take place at the Shanghai Everybright Conventional and Exhibition centre from 9 September 2009 (09/09/09).

MAM Software Reports Successful Debut

MAM’s made its debut at the Brityrex show, in May. Having spent several months on continued software development, the company was pleased with the reception its new Autopart tyre software received, and is now reaping the dividends from the contacts it made at the show.

“Our reason for exhibiting wasn’t just to promote our products to prospective users” explained Gareth Flower, MAM’s Marketing Manager. “Exhibiting also gives our existing customers an opportunity to meet with us personally. Constructing and manning stands can be expensive – both in terms of time and money – but they play an important role in building and maintaining relationships with our customers and prospects”.

MAM’s attendance at this and other exhibitions was part of a busy schedule planned for this year. For further details of events remaining in 2007, please see http://www.mamsoft.co.uk/exhibitions.
