67 NEWS APRIL 2019 We are extremely satisfied with IDMA We will participate the next show with larger booth and machinery Ahmet Özdemir, Representative at Turkey, AMANDUS KAHL: IDMA Exhibition gave us what we were expecting. Because of the diversity of our company’s working area, we had visitors from every sector. Therefore, I can express that we are satisfied with the exhibi- tion. About international visitors... We hosted a lot of customers, especially from African countries and the Middle East countries. And many of our visitors were from Turkey. Most of them had relevant questions about the features of our machines, the area in which the firm was providing services and the technologies that were suitable for them. In the meantime, we had important negotiations on turn-key projects. Considering all of these, I can say that we had a very pleasant exhibition. Len Defrancisci, Chairman, DEMACO: I am one of the owners of company Demaco. We are in the United States. We build pasta machines. We sell our machines worldwide. We are very happy to be here in Turkey and show you our equipment at this show. This is the first time we are here. We`ve absolutely loved it. People very very nice. This show opened our eyes to a lot of things that we didn`t know. Certainly the technology here in Turkey is very advanced and the people here really appreciate excellent quality equipment. And that has been was really good for us to see it. Also we learned about the different markets. This show was very international I mean there were people from all over who came to our booth. That was unexpected. We didn`t realize. We thought it was going just to be Turkey. We`ve got here and there is so many different people from all over the world here asking great questions. We learned about the different markets in the different areas. Really it will be good for me too, because we will take that back with us and do some different things with our tech- nology to make our equipment better to serve the different world markets. So really excited about that and this is over all an excellent show. And also there are some cool things to do here when you are not at the show. We went to the Hagia Sophia Mosque and many sites in the ancient city. And I`m going to bring my family back. I have to say when I can maybe over the summer because it`s just been really fun and unexpected. I will participate again with a passion. We will definitely come again maybe even have a bigger booth. Possibly, next time, be able to bring more people because it was a very busy day and yes, we are planning coming back again next time. IDMA 2019
