Strong year for Europa Showfreight
Europa Showfreight, a division of UK-based Europa Worldwide, boosted its turnover by 30% and its overall profit by 17% in 2018. The team expects this year to be even more successful and is now looking to recruit new staff.
Jeff Broom, Showfreight manager at Europa, said the success was due to an increase in brand awareness. He added: “Working on larger shows in Shanghai, Hong Kong and South America all contribute to another bumper year for us. We’re also collaborating with new overseas partners, such as Cretschmar Messe Cargo in Germany and Fulstandig in Brazil.
The team is in talks with trade bodies in the chemical, manufacturing and automotive industries with potential new destinations including Kenya, Columbia and the Philippines. UK medical companies are another area of focus with an increase in demand for UK medical products." (mw)
