Jonatan Fatelevich, Cirkuit Planet

I would like to take a moment and give feedback on our experience with your company this year. In all three events we took part – DISTREE XXL, DCC MEA and DCC CIS, we had excellent results.

The last week’s show in Russia has been very productive. We had very good contacts and hope to close several good agreements throughout the region in the coming days.

It is the mix of the hard work of DISTREE staff, your organization, friendliness, together with the right customers invited to each event that generate such excellent business opportunities. And most importantly, it is the personal touch your company offers that makes for such a positive difference in delivering your services.
We are confident that we will continue to work together for a long time and that Cirkuit Planet will continue to support all your projects.
