TROPHEX & EURO TROPHEX UAB TAURES UAB Taures was established in 2011. The company is a specialist in the production and marketing of cups, rosettes, and various other awards. They have clients from all over the world and also work with various federations and associations. They export to a wide range of countries which include Latvia, Estonia, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Spain, and India. You can choose rosettes from their standard range, but they can also make rosettes according to your order. On offer are 28 variations of ribbons of different colours and the rosette ribbon can be prepared with text of your choice which is gold in colour. UAB Taures brought their wide range of rosettes to Euro Trophex 2019, which was held in Berlin for the first time. Their stand stood out from the crowd with all of the vibrant colour created by the many rosette designs available. TRYUMF Tryumf started design work almost two months prior to the show, and preparations required the involvement of a large group of their employees, including personnel from the Research and Development, Marketing, and Export departments. Tryumf’s stand occupied 36 square metres and was divided into individual zones in which they could present their interesting product ranges. The first stage of preparations focused on creating an inviting layout for the stand, aiming to attract the attention of visitors to the show and encourage them on to the stand to get acquainted with their team. At the Berlin show they presented over 100 new products. Each of the Tryumf team members also wore a cool and coordinated uniform which made them stand out. Marcin Paterek, the director of the Marketing Department said “This year, at the fair in Berlin, we decided to present our new line of Q-medals. It is a new technology of refined spatial formation, characterised by extraordinary durability and full colour reproduction. The innovative method we use to decorate and the use of interesting shapes of Q-medals we are pleased to say met with a positive response from visitors to Euro Trophex”. Tryumf were also present at the UK show, Trophex, held in Sandown in January this year. WHAT’S IN STORE FOR THE NEXT TROPHEX? The organisers of Trophex took advice from the visitors to find out their thoughts on returning to the NEC for 2020. The results from the survey were very positive. The first result has shown that 89.7% plan to return to the show in 2020. This added to the 27.4% extra visitors that come to the show for the first time equates to an average of 17.1% increase in footfall each year at the NEC. (Based on 2015/16/17/18 figures). 4 APRIL 2019 64.7% of those that answered the survey felt the NEC was the perfect venue for Trophex with many saying that the transport links and facilities at the NEC made their visit easy and comfortable. 81.3% agreed that the parking charge of £16 being paid by the organisers of Trophex was an encouraging influence for them to attend as it helps to keep their costs down. Another interesting outcome from the survey was a third of visitors would like to see a wider diversity of exhibitors and products from sublimation to promotional product lines. With this in mind we are encouraging new exhibitors to the show from suppliers that compliment the Trophy, Awards, Engraving and Personalisation industry. Trophex 2020 is looking to be a popular show for exhibitors and visitors alike.
