Event Venue and Description: Cutlers Hall, Sheffield

Following the September event in Poland and the recent Sheffield City Region (SCR) and Department of International Trade (DIT) insight visit to Warsaw, it is expected that there will be great interest in the Trade Visit, which is being headed by the Master Cutler, Ken Cooke.

The visit has been planned to coincide with the largest manufacturing exhibition in eastern Europe , ITM Polska in Poznan, which includes the following exhibitions:

• MACH-TOOL
• METALFORUM
• SURFEX
• WELDING
• HAPE

Visit their website http://www.itm-polska.pl/en/ for further details about the individual exhibitions

The International Trade Forum will help you with market research to identify potential target customers and also in finding suitable agents or distributors. Though connections, DIT are also working on arranging a matchmaking series of meetings at the exhibition itself. Accompanying DIT on the visit will be Polish speaking individuals who will be able to help during the stay in Poznan and can even introduce you to Patrycja Greathead, who until recently was International Business Manager for Ronseal and other Sherwin Williams brands for Poland, Scandinavia and Germany.

Please note that Poznan will only be used as the base for the trade visit and other than staying in the same hotel on arrival, and attending introductory meetings on the Monday, you are free to choose the specific exhibitions you want to see and visit any companies wherever they are located in Poland. The role of DIT is to assist you in making your visit a success.

This is an excellent opportunity to build on the already close relations between the Region and Poland.
