International EXHIBITION – CONTRACTING  OF PRODUCERS AND TRADERS FROM  THE COUNTrIES ALONG THE Danube AND RUSSIA

   EXPO  “EURO   DANUBE”

 

 

In its millenary run from Schwarzwald to the Black Sea, the Danube River laves the banks of 9 countries, and through the Rhein-Main-Danube channel the number of countries grows to 13 and its borderline reaches the North Sea… The enormous waterway with its cheap transport has contributed to the economic prosperity of this part of Europe. Germany and Austria are highly developed countries. The other Danubian countries also follow their way. The trade collaboration between them is the way that unites  them into the big European family.

 

 “Euro Danube” because Bulgaria and Romania are part of the Danubian region of Europe, and “Danube” because the main participants are representatives of countries, located along the big river that unites and levels borders opening a way for joint initiatives, for development of the countries economies, for trade, manufacture, services, cooperation of companies from different countries, for finding common grounds between versatile economic and scientific interests and carrying out long-term joint ventures.  An important fact is that Silistra can be reached and departed for Europe by land, air and water. Three important European transport corridors cross here – land, water and air.

The first exhibition was in 1991 under the patronage of the Mayor of Rousse with the motto “ECOLOGICALLY CLEAN PLANET, 19 CENTURIES ROUSSE”. Then 300 000 ECU were granted to Rousse for its fight for ecologically clean nature. Since 1998 it is carried out under the auspices of the district governor of Rousse. The Japanese Ambassador was present at the opening ceremony; since 1999 it is also under the patronage of the Chairman of the Municipal Council. Since 2000 the ASSOCIATION FOR PROMOTION OF TRADE, THE ASSOCIATION OF DANUBE MUNICIPALITIES “DANUBE”, THE FOREIGN TRADE INSTITUTE, THE BULGARIAN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY OF RUSSE, THE BULGARIAN – SWISS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, THE BULGARIAN – RUSSIAN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY, BICCI, THE ITALIAN FOREIGN TRADE INSTITUTE, THE TERRITORIAL ORGANIZATION OF SCIENTIFIC UNIONS – ROUSSE, THE UNIVERSITY OF ROUSSE “ANGEL KANCHEV” have been our partners.

Then 22 companies established partnerships for future joint activity. A trans-border contract for long-term cooperation was signed, discussions were held for development of the local business.  

In 2004 the exhibition was resumed on the initiative of the District  Governor of Silistra Mr. Petko  Dobrev in the interest of supporting the economic progress in Silistra region. Leading companies and firms from the regions, Bulgaria, Romania, Turkey, etc. took part.

The  “EURO DANUBE” exhibitions have been opened by the Japanese Ambassador, the General Consul of the Russian Federation Mihail Reva, Dr. Massimo Di Giandomenicco – Director of the Italian Institute for Foreign Trade and the Commercial Advisor of the Embassy of the Republic of Poland, the

Chairman of the Municipal Council of Rousse, the Governors of the regions of Silistra and Rousse, Prince Radu and others. Many seminars were carried out and presentations were made by the Foreign Trade Institute – Sofia, the Executive Agency for Promotion of Trade at the Ministry of Economy as well as by the Center for Management and Company Development.

The Ecology, a very important issue for all of us, is also conducive of the constant expansion of the initiative  because alongside with high quality the organizers support the environmentally friendly products that protect the water, air and soil from pollution. In that sense special attention is paid to the new ecologically clean energy sources.

The motto of the exhibition is:

“Nature has given us a river that unites and connects us, a symbol of open Europe without borders – let's turn our business contacts into mutually profitable contracts.”

Is there anything better than the meeting of all Danube countries at “EURO DANUBE”. And why not other countries also participate and find their partners here. The development of useful business contacts has always been a guarantee for cooperation between the countries in other spheres also – the social, scientific and cultural.

The contracts, signed at the “EURO DANUBE” EXHIBITION give a chance for beneficial trans-border cooperation to manufacturers and traders from the other European countries.
