Commercial prospecting on site
Use the exhibitor catalogue to shortlist partners by service and location before arrival. Bring technical packs and representative samples detailing sizes, materials and tolerances. Book meetings to confirm production timelines, minimum order quantities and quality control procedures.
During the show, inspect finishing processes and small batch capabilities. If you require full package service, request references and production samples. For shorter runs, validate prototyping speed and scalability procedures.

Plan meetings and prepare technical briefs in advance. Visit the official site at http://sourcingexpo.pl to access the exhibitor catalogue and register for entry.
