“It’s a real business event. We did terrific business yesterday – 7 orders were placed! We found that the most successful products are our range of Italian wines.”

”It’s a good exhibition and a lot of people came. We won 27 awards for the 27 wines we submitted for the Wine&SpiritsAsia Challenge. We met a lot of visitors from India, Thailand, Burma, Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam. The Indian and Burmese visitors were mostly restaurant owners. We will most likely return to the next show.”
