EPCH had allotted HEPC 269.5 Sqm of space to accommodate our member exporters at the very last moment after a continuous persuasion. As usual we have got space in a disadvantageous location that too in the phase-II, 2 nd Floor of Mart Area and not in the Exhibition Halls. The Council has obtained consent of all the participants in writing clearly informing them the location of stalls. The following 16 members had been accommodated in 269.5 Sqm of space in Block 8-C & 9-C. As the location was not advantageous, buyer's turnout was not up to expectations.
The feedback received from our member participants are furnished below:
