The Horse Show in El Jadida is a prestigious event bringing together, in a small space and for a limited period of time, exhibitors and visitors, thus representing a privileged meeting place and exchange. Participating in the Show is an opportunity to prospect markets, to meet the competition, to attract new customers, to demonstrate know-how, in an atmosphere conducive to exchanges.
As the Show has an international audience, it allows small and medium-sized businesses in particular to consider international development at a reduced cost compared to other prospecting tools.
