SAITEX Africa

Kindly consider not partitioning the exhibitions per halls because there was less movement of people including the VIP's in other areas

The halls were full of local entrepreneurs, artists, and designers selling food, perfumes, jewellery, painted artworks, bags woven from recycled materials, beadwork, traditional clothing, leather goods and more. A jeweller particularly stood out by demonstrating how they test for real diamonds using on-site samples of a diamond ring and a moissanite stone. The expo provided abundant opportunities for fostering collaborations, exploring new products, networking, and gaining insights into emerging market trends across various sectors for South African SMMEs.

Learned and connected with a lot of people. It was amazing!!Only thing I wished for is that the workshops were recorded so that we could access them at a later stage. as I wasn’t able to attend all workshops and do the rounds at all the stands. It almost made it that there wasn’t enough time. Otherwise everything was incredible! Thanks so much :)

Saitex was not at the expectation. You had less exhibitors and not a great variety of products and exhibitors.We did not find what we expected.

Our team were keen on engaging with innovative OEM, distributors and retailers within the SME for electronics (laptops, components, printers etc), unfortunately this market was not present at the expo. Perhaps an opportunity to explore when organising the next event.

The Highlight for me is the business meeting between the MEC and Chief Director for North West Provincial Department of Economy and Enterprise Development Economy & Enterprise Development with the Philippine business delegation

If we use well the high technology we can take the business so far

I learned that with good communication even if you don't understand each others language you can still do business

May I take the opportunity to thank you for well done event. I managed to attend for two days . I thank you very much though was disappointed with fewer Technology Exhibition.

It was my first time to attend the show. It was well organised , i managed to find so many opportunities, contacts and new business leads. I am looking foward for the next expo

There's a lot to learn. I didn't have enough time. Do you have a website which I can visit and see the exhibitors for 2016 and 2017 and their wares?

The exhibition was wonderful. I was a bit disappointed with the changed agenda for the conference I had innitally planned to attend. Thank you.

The attendance unsatisfactory. Industry representatives not attending or insignificant numbers . The organization of B2B does not exist. Our companies are considering changing the show to alternatives. Organizers have to rethink the formula.

Good event was able to catch up with Saki from dmg events and many other traders will go again next year.

Two disappointments:Too many South African friends seemed unaware of the event which I considered a treasure trove.Secondly, the SA participation was negligible.
