What Professionals Have to Say

“Singapore located in a great hub of Asia, and many of suppliers from Malaysia, India, Sri Lanka, Yemen, Mid-east etc. are more willing to go. So we had met many current suppliers from those countries which we’ve never met in person before, also new suppliers. Seafood Expo Asia was indeed a perfect motivation to have facilitated our meetings with them. Seafood Expo Asia will be the most effective event of seafood business you shouldn’t miss!”

"Fantastic! I think we’re matched with nearly a dozen (of buyers). Think the Expo was very successful for us...”

“The exhibitors were well organized with considerable sales volume. Their business and product widened my view. I have met many distributors who can meet my needs to introduce new products in hypermarket. Also, saw the market trend to be more sustainable, and that we should get ready for the trend would definitely recommend (buyers) to attend.”

"This show is a very good chance to meet our potential buyers and also some suppliers.”

"The matchmaking meetings help us manage our schedule more efficiently. Having met [exhibitors] in private rooms provides better focused meetings compared to having a sit down in their booths with other distractions. We have already started negotiations with some of the vendors… this platform [allows us to] maximize the opportunity to meet possible future business partners."
