The "Indiatech" Fair in Sao Paulo, Brazil, which was organised in November 2003 with 87 Indian companies, fetched spot orders worth USD 50 million for the participants. Serious enquiries worth $25 million were generated in the show. India’s exports of engineering goods, which was at a level of only USD 35 million then, have now reached a level of almost USD 500 million.

EEPC India is pleased to announce its next INDEE – Brazil to be held in Caxias Do Sul in Brazil from 20 to 23 October 2009. The show will be a part of MERCOPAR, a leading Subcontracting and Industrial innovation fair in the entire Latin American region taking place since 1992.

The Mercopar exhibition is being organized by Hannover Fair Sulamerica Ltda, a subsidiary of Deutsche Messe and SEBRAE, an association promoting entrepreneurship in the small and medium industries sector in Brazil. India, this year, has been given the status of the Feature Country in this exhibition.

Last year, EEPC India had an information booth in this show, and the response was rather encouraging. A substantial number of enquiries were generated in the fields of hand tools, cutting tools, agricultural implements, mining equipment, castings, forgings, automotive components and so on.
