Successful premiere for EUROGUSS Mexico

EUROGUSS Mexico made its debut at the Fundiexpo, Mexico's biggest foundry exhibition, in Guadalajara (24th to 26th October 2018). Exhibitors and visitors alike were extremely happy with the outcomes of their trade fair participation, say the organisers. The entire area of the EUROGUSS Mexico pavilion was fully booked well before the event and offered clear proof of the interest there is in doing business in Mexico. The next EUROGUSS Mexico will take place in autumn 2020.

With EUROGUSS Mexico, Nu¨rnbergMesse is paving the way for companies to establish and expand business operations in the Mexican market. Mexico is an important player in the automobile market, one of the biggest customers for the diecasting sector. Thus, exhibitors and trade visitors see Mexico as an important strategic market for the diecasting industry.

EUROGUSS Mexico impresses participants

The exhibitor pavilion was the largest pavilion at a Fundiexpo show with 32 exhibitors. Feedback from the show gave praise to the quantity and quality of visitors and the discussions undertaken during the event.

Lisa Aulbach-Heinecke, managing director of Aulbach Automation GmbH abk-Pressenbau, had positive words about her experience: “This was the first time that we had taken part in an overseas fair in Mexico and presented our firms Aulbach Entgratungstechnik GmbH and Aulbach Automation GmbH abk Pressenbau to the professional audience. From the very start we were impressed by the marketing concept for EUROGUSS and this was also part of the reason we decided to take part. As a supplier of deburring presses and tools we see great potential with steady growth in the Mexican market. We were extremely satisfied with the calibre of visitors and the contacts made during EUROGUSS Mexico, and this has reinforced our decision to invest even more in the Mexican market in the future. We’d also like to take part again in the next EUROGUSS Mexico.”

More than 6,000 trade visitors included representatives of foundries and renowned suppliers to the automobile industry such as Bocar, Nemak, Cosma Casting, Mahle, ZF or Robert Bosch. But The event also featured well-known OEMs like Honda North America, Volkswagen de Mexico, Tesla Motors Inc, Nissan Mexicana and Fiat Chrysler.

“That was a hugely successful premiere for EUROGUSS Mexico and exactly the right time to expand our diecasting product family in Mexico. We received a consistently positive response from all participants who praised above all the calibre of the trade visitors. The mood in the packed exhibition halls was outstanding. We are already looking forward to the next EUROGUSS Mexico in autumn 2020”, says Christopher Boss, international product manager and exhibition director EUROGUSS at Nu¨rnbergMesse.
