“It’s a great way to discover a lot of new customers and also to keep in touch with our customers.”

Gerard Huibers, Sales representative at Batouwe Boomkwekerijen B.V.

Why do you come to the Salon du Végétal?

We, as Batouwe, are growing whips in container and shrubs in trays.  A lot of varieties we grow will be interesting to a lot of nurseries in, and around France. So our main goal is to highlight our new products.

As an exhibitor, what are your expectations when coming to the trade show?

The Salon du Végétal has always been a good trade show for us. It’s a great way to discover a lot of new customers and also to keep in touch with our customers.

How do you prepare your stay at the trade show?

We try to book a stand as soon as possible. We always build up our stand before the trade show starts to have a look on it.  Also we do inform all our customers before the trade show, telling them our stand number etc.

What do you do once the trade show is over (any specific actions to reap all the benefits from the trade show and so on)?

We answer questions and we do our best to keep in touch with our new relations and try to visit them.
