Live from Moscow: Lower traffic on IFE Fresh Produce Moscow
There were less visitors coming to IFE fair that just ends in Moscow comparing to last year.
Many exhibitors stressed it however some of them said less does not necesseraly means worse.
The world financial situation could be blamed as fresh produce exporters/importers limit marketing spends to balance expected payments delays. However, the general economic situation in Russia seems to be far from panic as the goverment is supporting major industries with solid cash injection.The only thing market analysts are afraid of , is deposits withdrawal .It came to 2% in October a record level since 10 years.
