The exhibitions for the Penza cluster enterprises help promote their brands, expand and create new contacts and partnerships with sellers, retailers and consumers, and help learn of the newest market trends, the general director of the Center of Cluster Development Mikhail Lyashkov informed PenzaNews agency.

“The exhibitions help both small and large companies expand their trade volumes and sales geography. This effect is increased if they take part in the event under a common brand, as this guarantees the high reputation of the companies in the cluster and ensures the high quality of their products,” he said.

According to Mikhail Lyashkov, the small and medium companies in the cluster also receive state support in the terms of compensation of their expenses for exhibitions organized by the Center of Cluster Development through federal and regional budgets.

“Only in 2014 and the first half of 2015, 27 regional cluster companies took part in nine international exhibitions where they made over 100 new contracts and 29 shipping agreements with the support of the Center,” the speaker said.

There is a potential for the Penza clusters to send their representatives to the grandest international exhibitions, he noted.

“In February next year the best enterprises of the Penza confectionary cluster will show their goods at ISM 2016, the largest European confectionary producers exhibition in Koln, Germany,” Mikhail Lyashkov said.
