In the Works – Building International Partnerships Kerri Kent works the Equestrian Retailer booth at SPOGA's USA Pavilion Kerri Kent, AETA’s Vice President, attended Spoga and reported that it was a great trade fair with many opportunities for AETA to build business relationships both here and abroad. She worked on partnering with Spoga on establishing a special USA pavilion that would be a simple way for US companies to attend the trade fair in Germany. By partnering with Spoga, the AETA show also would be marketed to other international manufacturers. Some key benefits of this partnership would be …
1. Meeting the best of the best equestrain retailers and distributors from around the world
2. Taking advantage of the strength of international currency and the understated US dollar
3. Being part of the first ever USA pavilion which would provide turn-key and incubator spaces to help grow participants‘ businesses.
And, who wouldn’t like to visit beautiful Cologne, Germany?!
Progress on these discussions will be reported as they develop.
