In February we will be represented at the following events: The Plastindia, the leading Indian trade fair for the plastics industry and twice in Hanover at the IHK.

Plastics industry: Plastindia

This year the event will take place again in Gandhinagar (Gujarat) from February 7th to 12th, 2018 Plastindia instead of. The Plastindia is an important fixture for European machine builders in the plastics and rubber industries.

According to the trade association VDMA, German plastic and rubber machines worth 179 million euros were imported to India last year. The overall market grew by over 20 percent year-on-year, with German machine imports in the industry increasing by almost 30 percent. Therefore, India is worth a trip for many German mechanical engineers.

Choice of location for sales or production in India (IHK Hannover)

At the invitation of the Indian Consul General from Hamburg, an event on the topic “Choice of location for sales or production in India” instead.

In India, a classic distinction is often made between the sales regions North (Delhi), South (Bangalore / Karnataka or Chennai / Tamil Nadu), West (Mumbai, Pune / Maharashtra) and East (Kolkata / West Bengal). For this reason, this regional division is also the focus of this event.

Mike Batra and our representative from Hamburg, Peter Laser, provide insights into the large economic areas mentioned above and compare them. In addition to infrastructural factors such as transport connections and power supply, the availability of suitable specialists and management staff also play a decisive role in the choice of a location.
