Organizers of the 27th HVACR Exhibition, to be held in Lahore from March 26, say they have achieved almost all targets set for the event. ‘We expect a huge turnout and are also sure this will be a different show’, says Mr. Khurram Malick, President Pakistan HVACR Society.
The society is organizing exhibitions for over 26 years. Once a small moot has now transformed into a huge event especially during the last few years, he told ER.
In the last exhibition, we had a whole expo center in Karachi for the very first time, he recalls. Karachi and Lahore go with a very good turn out. Islamabad also hosts the same event but it has its own challenges due non-availability of any expo center. Thus, our team meets a kind of double challenge there. They have to create an even along with creating an atmosphere like an expo center. It also costs a lot.
We, he believes, have a healthy competition between society’s chapters. When Lahore did a wonderful exhibition, Islamabad took it as a challenge and thus succeeded in putting up a big show. When it came to Karachi which you witnessed last year it surpassed the targets.
It takes a full year to make preparations and now the Lahore team is busy to make it a success. They have achieved almost 80 percent of their targets. We came up with an online booking process that ensures transparency. In Karachi, we had the complete booking in just 27 minutes. So this time we are almost ready for the Lahore moot.
Mr. Malick said they were looking towards many international exhibitors besides Pakistani companies.
Lahore moot will be participated by President and Vice President Ashrae besides the regional head of the organization. Mr. Malick is sure they would paint a better image of Pakistan abroad after participating in the exhibition.
Mr. Malick claims he has always paid serious attention to the issues of local manufacturers. After taking over the society he formed a committee to look into the issues and concerns of Pakistani manufacturers and making a feasibility report for a testing lab in the country
