"There are several reasons why spoga+gafa is so important for our sector. For one thing, face-to-face meetings are still very important, especially in the bbq sector, because we want to bring people together. In addition, the trade fair offers us the ideal platform for presenting our products to perfection, for exchanging ideas and for demonstrating and proving our quality.”
