Yulia Markova, MosHome exhibition director:

"Last year was a successful start for the exhibition and showed good results. Having analysed the feedback from exhibitors, and identifying the key areas for 2024, we have revised many sectors. For example, a survey of visitors showed that the section "Goods for Animals" requires a wider presentation and there is a high demand for it. And this year already more than 80 companies will present their products in this section.

We do everything to make the venue as productive as possible for all participants - an up-to-date business programme, meeting rooms, special demonstration zones. Live communication, meeting new people, networking is responsible for the success of the exhibition, and we try to create such an atmosphere that both exhibitors and visitors feel comfortable to solve their tasks and do business".

The synergies of the two projects, provides visitors everything they need for home and renovation, and exhibitors additional reach and a new audience, as more than 80,000 trade professionals and designers visit MosBuild every year.
