  • A person on site who can decide terms, not only describe the product.

For chain-facing suppliers we keep a separate waiting list for the buying marketplace: if your product sits in a short category (fresh, private label, halal certification), there will be more meetings than slots.

Foreign participants get help with the customs letter for exhibition samples and with label translation into Uzbek — that is a marking requirement, not our preference.
