EXHIBITOR COMMENTS

Marzia Bianciotto, Foreign Sales, TECNOMOLLE, Italy

We were at the Z-Subcontracting Fair for the first time. Actually it was the first time that we were at a trade fair in Germany. We had many good discussions at our stand. Our stand was visited by many professionals and purchasers and we are looking forward to further business relations. For us eastern Germany and Eastern Europe are very important.

Uwe Frühauf, Shareholder, all-tight GmbH

We came to the Z-Subcontracting Fair to present our innovations in Leipzig. We are particularly happy that our innovative thread lock product won the Z innovation award. Participating in the trade fair was a good decision. We were able to conduct interesting discussions at our stand and even initiated several business transactions. Moreover, the Technical University of Dresden is interested in our product. A collaboration is in the pipeline here as well. Thus, we are very satisfied and will definitely be back on hand in two years.

Günter Hofmann, Managing Director, HOFMANN Tool Manufacturing, President of Bundesfachgruppe Feinmechaniker

We were very satisfied with the flow of visitors at our community stand within the community stand of the Bundesfachgruppe Feinwerkmechanik in Bundesverband Metall. We developed promising contacts with discussions ranging from initial interest in obtaining information to concluding contracts. The quality of visitors at the Z is good as well. That's why we are hoping for good follow-up business. The Z is an important event for cultivating contacts in Germany. We are optimistic that we will be on hand again in Leipzig in two years.

Andreas Kessler, Sales Engineer, Otto Suhner AG

Eastern Germany is an important location for the subcontracting industry. That is why we participate in the Z in order to draw more attention to our company in the region. We produce shafts and gearwheels and were pleased with the good reception and interest shown by visitors here. We anticipate additional purchase orders after the Z-Subcontracting Fair and are already planning on participating again. We were also able to further develop our contacts in Eastern Europe at the Z.

Karl Boss, Managing Director, faigle Industrieplast GmbH

We were at the Z for the first time and are thus very satisfied with the trade fair's concept. We had many good discussions and have noted the demand for our products. At the same time, we were also looking for new suppliers.

Guido Rößler, Managing Partner, Rößler GmbH

You could say that the Z is our main trade fair. We present our range of services and products here. Besides improving our relations to customers, we also develop new contacts in Leipzig. We participated in the Z for the first time in 2007 with a stand having a floor space of 12m2. This year, our stand covered 36m2. That clearly illustrates what the Z means to our company. We once again anticipate good follow-up business after this year's trade fair.

Richard Lochter, Sales, Maschinen und Metallbau RESPONDECK GmbH

The Z is important for our company's presence. We leverage the trade fair to canvass new customers and are very satisfied by the large number of interested visitors. The Z's appeal increased considerably thanks to its combination with the intec. Here we meet our customers from all over Germany and will definitely be back in two years to participate again.

Dirk Falke, Proprietor of Ingenieurbüro Falke

Thanks to winning the Z's Innovation Award, we noted a considerably increase in visitors at our stand. A delegation from the Automotive Cluster Ostdeutschland (ACOD) visited our stand, since delegation members were really interested in our products. Besides further developing contact with existing customers, we also managed to canvass many new customers. We were also very pleased with the large number of visitors we had at our stand and anticipate good follow-up business. We are definitely planning on participating in the Z again in two years and consider that our presentation was very worthwhile for our company.

Hans-Lothar Hagen, Managing Partner, HaWi-Tec GmbH & Co KG

At the Z we were able to reach a good mix of new and regular customers. In addition, Leipzig's exhibition center possesses a good infrastructure and pleasant atmosphere. For us, the Z is like our home turf. Many visitors of our stand conclude their visit with a visit to our factory which is located close by. That frequently resulted in further in-depth discussions. The Z has been a permanent fixture on our calendar for years and we will definitely be back in two years.

Lothar Winkler, Sales Manager, mbo Oßwald GmbH & Co KG

We are medium-size enterprise with a global presence. The Z plays a major role for developing business contacts in eastern Germany and Europe. This year, we registered more visitors at our stand than we have in the past. We attribute that to the Z's thorough coverage in specialized media, which is a positive development. The demand for our new articulated joint was also very good, which should lead to good follow-up business after the trade fair. We will most likely participate in the Z again in two years.
