Finding buyers and suppliers for stationery online in Productpilot, the new business matching platform
With Productpilot, Messe Frankfurt extends its trade fair’s program into the Internet. Messe Frankfurt is one of the world’s most prominent service providers for business matching – and brings together supply and demand in branches like stationery, music or personal care. Messe Frankfurt annually hosts about 120 trade shows worldwide. Trade visitors from a wide range of industries use Messe Frankfurt’s events to inform themselves about the market and its offerings. Exhibitors from all over the world find their customers here. Events are hosted in branches like office supply, electronics, audio & video and further consumer goods. With Productpilot, Messe Frankfurt is synchronising the offline world of a hosted trade show with the online world of the internet. Productpilot is a business matching platform which is accessible 365 days a year.
Messe Frankfurt uses the internet as an encompassing information medium that offers details of exhibiting companies such as the attended trade shows or their booth numbers. Also, especially in the consumer goods industry, companies are encouraged to complete their company profiles with product information, trends and innovations. Also photos are welcome. This promoting option is used very often. Thus, stationery supplies may showcase their greeting cards, wedding cards, their envelopes or diaries throughout the year and not just during the limited duration of a trade show.
In general, information is provided in English, as can also be presented in German, Spanish or French. An online translator makes it easy for international website users to get an appropriate translation for their mother tongues such as Greek, Japanese, Russian or Chinese. Within seconds, you know what “paper” means in French or “notecards” in Portuguese.
The stationeries section of Productpilot contains international companies introducing themselves and their portfolios. All companies provide their contact details. You can easily reach them online, no matter if they are from the Netherlands, Taiwan, Portugal or Germany. You might be a paperstore specialised in address books or artist supplies and looking for a suitable manufacturer, or you are a book store looking for wholesalers offering unique pencils – in Productpilot all users will find their right matching online: before a trade show, throughout the year and as a follow-up.
As Productpilot is self-explanatory and customised, navigation is easy. Searching can be done by a B2B search engine. Productpilot offers its users like supply chain managers, buyer’s agents and manufacturers a maximum comfort.
