Taipei Trade Show (Thank you note from CDI)

Food Taipei Trade Show
Hello Steven,
Blake and I would like to thank you for your hard work and effort in making the
Taipei Show a success. You and your team did an excellent job organizing the
meetings and keeping everyone on schedule. The booth was positioned very well
inside the venue and the private meeting rooms were a big plus. When
considering new markets for CDI Cream Cheese our approach is always the
same. We first analyze the market by utilizing the latest research, we then target
the customers we are interested in and finally we work with the CMAB team to
assist us in making contact and arranging meetings. You and your team followed
through and again we appreciate the effort.
