According to preliminary data, about 30% of exhibitors signed around 1500 contracts during the autumn exhibitions of 2017.

The exposition covers 20 000 sq.m. Each year over 700 companies from 16 countries take part in the exhibition, mainly – Russian and foreign manufacturers, wholesale companies and distributors.
