Feedback from key exhibitors and participants on PHARMA Pro&Pack Expo 2015 and PharmaLAB Expo 2015

This third edition has been beneficial in terms of foreign delegates visiting our booth and considering the ‘Make-in-India’ programme initiated by the current government, it was very interesting to have foreign buyers coming and inspecting our products. Seeing is believing and when you showcase and demonstrate the working of your products to buyers at the show, the product speaks for itself.

Mahendra Mehta, Chief Executive Officer, Parle Global Technologies and Treasurer, IPMMA.

I am really very happy to attend the shows here and it was very interesting to come across new technologies and developments in the field of pharma machineries. The best part is that along with iPHEX, the shows put together showcase the entire spectrum of the Indian pharma industry”.

Dr SP Rijhwani, Promed Laboratories, Indore and Vice President – Indian Pharmaceutical Association (IPA)

With increasing R&D spends, Indian pharma sector has become a cost-effective centre for world class research as also for contract R&D. Indian companies in recent years have produced many cost-effective drugs that are affordable to the masses. We are making concerted efforts to promote India’s status as the manufacturing hub of the world.

Ashutosh Gupta, Chairman, Pharmexcil

The unique model of exhibition format where each buyer from various countries meet each and every exhibitor is a model by itself. Due to this model, Pharmexcil has taken a lead to increase the reach of these buyers so that exhibitors can in turn maximise the potential of these buyers and explore new business opportunities

Bhavin Mehta, Committee Chief of iPHEX and CoA member, Pharmexcil

We are exhibiting at this expo for the third time and the profile of buyers who visit our booth fits in perfectly with the products that we manufacture. Buyers are spending a lot of time reviewing our machinery and we successfully closed a few orders with the buyers who visited our booth. We are a joint venture partner with Parle Global Technologies and they too are happy with the results that we generate from this show.

David Keefer, President, Elizabeth Carbide Die Co, US

We are a repeat exhibitor at the PHARMA Pro&Pack Expo and we are very happy with the way the show has been organised. And just like last year, we are really impressed with the quality of international visitors who are here. Additionally, since this show is being held alongside iPHEX, the show generates extra exposure, since our machinery users are part of the iPHEX show.

Kedar Sathe, Director, Arbess Tools

The PHARMA Pro&Pack Expo 2015 is very well organised and at this just one trade show, I have been able to see all kinds of pharma machinery.

Shafiuzzaman, Secretary General, Bangladesh Association of Pharmaceutical Industries, Bangladesh

It was a wonderful experience for me as I have never visited such an expo in India. I have been to may exhibitions in the US; however the PHARMA Pro&Pack Expo 2015 is comparable to those held in the US. Talking about the technologies on display, I came across many latest types of machineries. I came across two to three producers of that equipment. I can say that Indian pharma manufacturers are at par with those in the US. Secondly, the prices of Indian machines are very affordable to those available in the US
