Expo of the project Shop of Region

On 21 May 2022, a Shop of Region Expo took place in Vienna, where the Hungarian and Austrian potential suppliers interested in the project and actively participating in it had the opportunity to introduce themselves to each other, to get to know each other, to look for new sales channels and to gain experience.

The producers set up individual stalls at the Johann-Nepomuk-Vogel Markt in Währing, one of Vienna's family-friendly districts, to present their products. The event was an excellent opportunity for the future potential suppliers to present their products to each other and to the Viennese public. The event also raised the interest of the Viennese public in the high-quality local products of Eastern Styria and Western Hungary, and provided an opportunity to get to know each other a little better and to taste each other's products, and to think together about further sales and cooperation opportunities.

A total of 12 Austrian and Hungarian entrepreneurs and producers attended the event, including fruit and vegetable growers, jam and syrup producers, herb sellers, brandy makers, beekeepers, local produce traders and craftsmen. The EXPO took place in a true market atmosphere, with cultural programmes also helping to boost interest in the event.

The EXPO also allowed a wider audience of buyers to learn about the project's objectives, which helped to raise awareness and disseminate the project.

The Einkaufsstraßenverein Kaufleute Kreuzgasse and the Hungarian Embassy in Vienna were also involved in the event.
