ORGANISATION OF THE STAND

Each company will have its own space of approximately 15 m² with the following items:

• Table with 4 chairs
• Counter and stool
• Display unit and shelving
• Graphics: company name, logo and product image
• Individual storage

If an exhibitor needs furniture or services not covered by the terms of the call, they must bear the cost (freezers and display fridges are at the exhibiting companies' expense).

The basic decoration will be the same for all stands. Within their own space, each exhibitor may use their logo and promotional material, provided this does not alter the overall look of the stands.

Companies will have access to a shared water point.

The Prodeca staff assigned to organising the pavilion will support exhibitors before and during the fair.
