The show had 33,000 square meters of exhibition space, 20% more room than last year.
m²Dongfeng partnered with its local dealer WARYNSKI to attend the AUTOSTRADA-POLSKA. Their 850 square meters booth held 12 machine models covering the full range of product lines. All 12 Dongfeng models were compliant with European CE standards. The show was the largest Dongfeng has ever staged in Poland.
During the show, the booth was visited by more than 360 potential customers and the sales team sold 10 out of the 12 machines on display. The Dongfeng team is pursuing 40 more potential orders.

Mr. Zdzisław Gawlik, Polish Deputy Minister of Treasury; Mr. Wojciech Dąbrowski, President of the Industrial Development Agency, and Mr. Piotr Słupski, Vice President of Polish Industrial Development Foundation visited the Dongfeng booth.
As this was one of Dongfeng’s best results ever in Poland, an appreciation dinner was held after the show to celebrate the success.
