The Vishwa show

Our next showcase was at the Vishwa show in Mumbai at CCI grounds on 29-31 Oct. With a funky display of newspaper balls in our stall, people were drawn from a distance to see what we had to offer. It was a great platform to network with green companies and buyers. There were different kinds of eco-friendly sellers ranging from organic food, green packaging, stalls promoting rural crafts, organic clothing, well-being holistic products to those promoting animal rights. We also gave a company presentation to a large audience of eco conscious buyers which also included young kids. This show was an exhibition along with a recreation ground for kids teaching them crafts like pottery, yoga workshops for them, etc.
