The WATS™ team received many compliments and comments during the evening
all being of the same tune, that although WATS™ Cape Town was not as big
as it’s main show in Pretoria, the amount and type of visitors was just
right, with a good number of exhibitors stating they had done very good business during the evening, as well as meeting valuable new potential clients and bolstering relationships with their current clients.
The show was extremely well supported by a large crowd of enthusiastic Parts & Technology Hungry
Visitors.
We are also proud to announce Motor Electro Diesel (M.E.D) as winners of
the “Most Innovative Stand” at the Cape Town show, with their impressive
LED Light Bars and hospitality section being a major feature at the
show. M.E.D will be receiving a certificate of their achievement as well
as the traditional WATS™ trophy being the huge Blue Chromed Shifting
Spanner for display. Congratulations to Johnny Feinstein and his team
from M.E.D on a job well done!
M.E.D. was closely followed by, Hex Diagnostix, Diesel Electric Cape Town & the Midas Group consisting of ACD, Motolek, Midas, CBS & ADCO.
WATS™ is very proud to be in the position to say that even in the current economic climate, companies have placed their trust in our show to help them gain ever priceless exposure and the opportunity to improve in their relative markets. We are confident that this trend will continue into future shows, gathering momentum and offering our exhibitors valuable exposure and tangible returns.
