Experience PALF through Our Hosted Buyer Programme

In collaboration with the Leather Export Council in Egypt, PALF introduces a high-level hosted buyer program to attract key buyers from Europe, Asia and Africa. Hosted buyers are introduced to companies looking to export and meetings take place in a one-to-one environment in the hosted buyer lounge, which is placed in a key location at the show. In 2021, PALF is targeting up to 100 hosted buyers from Africa and Europe. All buyers will be invited with complimentary flights and accommodation. Exhibitors are welcomed to recommend buyers who will be vetted as part of the strict application process. Only buyers with purchasing, or decision-making power are accepted as part of the program.

Hosted Buyer Program and Fully hosted buyer package are design for buyers to meet with our exhibitors thus the buyers should provide purchase list previously, onsite match-making will be arranged accordingly.

Buyers under this category are required to attend at least 6 pre-scheduled match-making sessions per day with our exhibitors. The meeting details will be provided to Fully Hosted Buyers by email 2 weeks prior to the show.

Buyers should be demanded to place orders, source for new products, or have a significant influence on purchasing decisions, thus, the buyers must have direct authority to source and import or export products directly.

This programme not only ensures exhibitors monetary return on investment (ROI), but also an invaluable ROI for the time spent at the event.
