28th Pakistan HVACR Expo 2023 set to boost local industry

Preparations for the 28th Pakistan HVACR Expo 2023 being held in Karachi from June 8 are on the fast track and signals coming from organizers and exhibitors suggest the show is most likely to break the cycle of despair in the business community in the wake of the difficult economic situation in Pakistan.
Chairman of HVACR Society, Karachi Chapter Zeeshan Ahmed Siddiqi says there is a positive response from the people and that the exhibitors are excited as Karachi is hosting this moot after three years.
He believes the exhibition simultaneously is a challenge too in Pakistan’s current fragile economic situation. But still, the show has attracted exhibitors and all are coming to the exhibition where they will display their products and offer services.
HVACR Expo is embedded with a conference focusing on energy efficiency and skill development, the areas in the spotlight in Pakistan today. The conference theme is linked with energy, localization, and technology transfer—the demands that the organizers fully comprehend.
HVACR Expo organizers said they were pretty unsure of the outcomes when they started moving but now we do witness the synergy appearing on the horizon. Our people have always been hopeful. They say what is needed is the policies that should be corrected so that the local industry is encouraged.
Yet another HVACR player says we have been lacking in producing local producers; we have been dependent on imports. We have failed to recognize local producers who are now gradually being given awareness. This exhibition would play its part in such a direction.
This show, says yet another player will bolster industry-academia collaboration and this is one of the ways to increase productivity in Pakistan. Local producers will be encouraged if they see society moving in this direction. There are quite a number of companies which are producing various parts which were imported until a few years ago.
A local producer says he is very confident that he will have an opportunity to display Pakistan-made products in the exhibition. We are making products that match international standards and if they are recognized, Pakistan will be benefited the most.
Yet another local producer is also sure this exhibition will bolster the local industry in the country. The people will know about local products which can replace the imported ones.
