“After so long working remotely, there was a clear need for in-person communication and face-to-face meetings. In order to get to know each other better and discuss prospects for cooperation, partners tried to spend as much time at our stand as possible. Our business cards and brochures were hot commodities, and we were constantly resupplying our marketing materials,” observes Tatyana Gaevskaja, Head of the AsstrA Trade and Contract Logistics Department.
Dmitrij Gerber
Dmitrij Gerber, Head of the AsstrA Railway Transportation Department, also notes that the exhibition was busy and effective. “We had a tightly booked schedule of meetings. The discussions with vehicle owners as well as directors and top managers of carriers were particularly productive and informative. We discussed a number of important issues, received valuable information about market trends, and outlined ways to deepen our relationships."
