​We have received a surprising interest from buyers who originate outside of Canada which is great as it means
​that the expo is able to attract quality buyers from overseas. We are targeting retailers and restaurant owners and we have managed to meet these kinds of buyers during the show. We wanted to make a greater effort in branching out into markets like USA, Europe, and Asia so participating in the fair provided us with an ideal opportunity.
