Only a month to Bauma

Between September 15 and 18, the world’s top mining and construction brands will converge at the Johannesburg Expo Centre, Nasrec. The second Bauma Conexpo Africa trade fair for the mining and construction industries is being billed as “the must-attend trade fair for the mining and construction industry on the African continent”.

“It’s an opportunity to meet the major key industry players and connect with customers from across the continent and to expand your business potential – at one location over four days,” says Marius Smit, Bauma Conexpo Africa’s sales and marketing manager.

In 2013, 700 exhibitors occupied over 60 000 m² of exhibition space. This time around there will be ten country pavilions as opposed to the nine in 2013, and the organisers expect over 20 000 visitors.

Exhibitors will be showcasing all their latest developments and technologies at the demonstration area. In addition, IFAT Environmental Technology Africa will run alongside Bauma Conexpo Africa, which will focus on environmental solutions for the mining and construction industry.

“We will also introduce the Bauma Conexpo Africa Forum, which will feature ‘Country Specials’ focusing on investments and projects in southern, eastern and western Africa. This Forum will be open to all visitors to the trade fair. Bauma Conexpo Africa will also play host to the 110th Master Builders South Africa (MBSA) Annual Congress,” Smit adds.

Pre-registration ensures free entrance for all show days and access to the matchmaking programme, as well as allowing for a faster, more streamlined registration process.
