EVENTS AND EXHIBITIONS INCORPORATING COLD CHAIN Exhibitors signing up for FRIGAIR 2021 again By Ntsako Khosa As the exhibitor sign-up for the FRIGAIR 2021 expo starts gaining momentum, we chat to the newly signed-up exhibitors about why they are returning for another show… THESE 2018 EXHIBITORS HAVE ALREADY SIGNED UP FOR FRIGAIR 2021. “We signed up again to get leads and to get our product out in the market, this is the same reason we signed up for the last show.” Nico Koegelenberg (DuctSox). “The FRIGAIR Expo is the only exhibition relevant to our product. We will be exhibiting our insulated panels and doors, same as the previous exhibition.” Reinier Muller (Panel World). “Frigair is well-attended and it gives us the opportunity to see our customers and introduce them to what’s new at Rickard. We have some exciting developments in the pipeline. There will be some new control offerings and products on show. From FRIGAIR 2018 we learnt that controls and IOT is the way things are moving. If you’re not moving in that direction you’re being left behind. For the next Show we’d like to see more new customers come to the show. Please make it as attractive as possible for new customers to attend.” Mark Rickard (Rickard Air Diffusion). FRIGAIR 2021 takes place 9-11 June 2021 at Gallagher Convention Centre, Midrand, Johannesburg. Visit www.frigairexpo.co.za for regular updates. CLA 28 www.coldlinkafrica.co.za “The Frigair expo remains without doubt the premier event of its kind on the African Calendar. The Frigair expo offers the best platform available to connect with industry and clients, form new friendships and rekindle old ones, view the latest trends and technologies and to showcase our latest products and services. ACRA will be exhibiting the latest trends in training and assessment including the apprenticeship and adult training available against the new qualifications as well as the latest trade testing processes and procedures. We will be offering career guidance and advice to persons currently in our industry as well as to new entrants. The 2018 show, from our perspective was the best expo of its kind held in South Africa thus far, drawing visitors and exhibitors from both local and international parties. We look forward to interacting with industry, visitors and exhibitors allowing ACRA a platform to showcase training development, the training available against the latest air conditioning and refrigeration qualifications for apprenticeships and adult courses. Exposure to the latest trends and technologies further enable ACRA to keep training current and valid.” Grant Laidlaw (ACRA). BOOK YOUR STAND!
