More than 800 exhibitors took part in the fair which was attended by approximately 30,400 visitors. Handicraft Export Promotion (HEP) received 15 requests from potential buyers, including buyers from Denmark, Poland, Sweden and China, and nine confirmed orders from buyers in Ireland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany and Norway. Most of them are owners of fashion accessories shops. Main products ordered include crochet scarves, dresses and skirts, hand painted shoes and sandals, and custom jewelry.
HEP is now discussing with Ugebradet Sondag, a national newspaper in Denmark, to publish HEP’s products exhibited in CIFF, including the producers’ profiles, and the shops in Denmark where these products will be sold.
