Exhibitor Testimonials
Here's what some of our exhibitors had to say about Subcon
“We have already received our first order from a new customer we met at the Show - and whom we would not have met otherwise. We have so many contacts to follow up…it couldn’t have gone much better for us. It was very well organised; we are very pleased with it.”
Michael lynch, Tridan Engineering
“We had a fantastic Show with a phenomenal response. We returned to the office with email enquiries worth in excess of £8million! And I’m sure it will keep rising – the dilemma now is how to deal with all the enquiries! Now the hard work begins!"
Shirley Jones, DJJ Precision Engineering
“From a network of companies’ point of view this is the best Show we have ever done.”
Steve Gaston, Midlands Assembly Network
“We are definitely seeing the right people here. I’ll rebook with a bigger stand.”
Chris Hart – Autoy
"We made some good contacts and have quoted already for heavy machinery - large diameter parts for power transmission. It is nice to find that our prices are competitive in the UK."
Henrik Petersen, Villiam Petersen
"The visitors were well qualified – they came with an aim in mind and that was really good. We made 30 new contacts and arranged some meetings."
Thomas Brinch-Moller, Temponik
“Our first time exhibiting at Subcon and we are extremely happy. We are working on 20-25 good leads we got at the Show and we have already had a meeting in Denmark with a Canadian contact we met at Subcon - and it looks like becoming a very significant partnership. We would like to return with a bigger presence in 2010."
Simon Bennett, Ertech Stal.
"We are satisfied with the quality of the contacts we made."
FAVI (France)
"We are pleased with the enquiries we received and will be exhibiting at Subcon again next year."
Borrelly (France)
"I have to admit I am quite impressed with the quality of leads we have got."
Alpha Springs
“Very pleased with the outcome- hence we have already confirmed our stand for next year. In total 85 new contacts, 40-50 strong leads, meetings already arranged and if we can convert 10% I’ll be very, very happy.”
Kevin Powell, A&M EDM Ltd
“We made some very good contacts specific to what we manufacture – heavy / high volume fabrications. We have a meeting arranged already, with a respected industrial machinery manufacturer.”
Neil Weston, Flair Technologies
"Subcon is well attended by blue chip companies in the auto, aviation, machinery and general manufacturing sectors. In 3 days we exchanged contact details with over 100 purchasers and engineers from respected companies such as Honda - and even the Royal Mint are interested in our prototyping capabilities!”
Ross Perkins, C2W
"Good quality enquiries from aerospace, defence and nuclear. The aerospace was particularly interesting because we haven’t had enquires from this sector before – and we are seeing them at their factory next week – we have had a couple like that."
Oldham Engineering
“The Subcon Show was a real success for our sister company Bright Spark Precision Engineering. We were really surprised by the quality of the leads and the number of genuine enquiries we got despite all the talks about the recession.”
Jean-Yves Dziki, Merc Engineering
"Small but good – and better than France. The last day was the best day – I haven’t been able to sit down!"
Cenk Denizci, Denizciler Dokumculuk
"Lots of good conversations - It’s better than France."
Hsih Hao Huang, Magic Precision (Taiwan)
