Comments from exhibitors on metall München 2009

“Visitor flow was good and despite the economic downturn, interesting customer requests provided us with a clear focus. Both the quantity and quality of the trade visitors, as well as the requests received, exceeded our expectations of metal München.”

Siegbert Reiter, Director
Reiter Maschinen, Hohenbrunn:
”80% of regular customers complain that their orders have fallen by 40-50%. The high visitor numbers indicate that they now have a lot of spare time to attend trade fairs. However, it was very important for us to attend this show, as we were able to keep up to date with developments and gain new clients. We have to remain aware of the fact, though, that the benefits can only be reaped after the economic problems have improved. The exhibition team did a great job with the visitor promotions.”

Hermann Weiler, Director
GDW Werkzeugmaschinen Herzogenaurach GmbH, Herzogenaurach:
”At metall München we gained new contacts and customers from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Germany and Swizerland, who we’d never met at other shows. It was very satisfying to be able to confirm deals there and then. In comparison to the 2008 show we gained 25% more leads this year.”

Heinz Soyer Jr, Director
Heinz Soyer Bolzenschweißtechnik GmbH, Wörthsee:
“Our debut at metall Muenchen was excellent. The show proved that despite the economic situation, the domestic market continues to thrive. Fortunately the global economic crisis was not evident amongst the metal München visitors.”

Franz Sagere, Branch Manager
Berner + Straller GmbH, Munich:
“We were very impressed by the number of visitors and industry decision makers in the area for tools, clamping devices and standardised components. The peripheral areas, which are important for the metal industry, e.g. extractors, coolants etc., also had good visitor flow.”

“The training area at metall München is of particular interest to me; since the conventional WEILER machines have always been geared towards apprenticeships, this show provides a site of great potential for us.”
