Final Sprint of the year for Atlántica Agrícola

Atlántica Agrícola did not miss its appointment with three of the most important events of the sector in the final stretch of 2018. Colombia, Mexico and Turkey were the countries where we had the opportunity to present our wide range of products and solutions for professional agriculture. We talk about NewAG Biocontrol LATAM, Expo AgroAlimentaria Guanajuato and Growtech Eurasia.

In this brief review, we analyze the importance of these reference events based on the specific theme of each of them, as well as the large numbers related to the number of attendees, speakers, participating companies, and their potential for generating business with the goal of responding to the great challenges of the future of the global agri-food sector.

Finally, the last day of the convention, all attendees enjoy a fantastic closing catering sponsored by Atlántica Agrícola where organizers, speakers, companies and participants could make contacts and establish synergies.

In parallel to the celebration of the Expo Agroalimentaria, the latest presentation of our new line of biopesticides in Mexico also took place in Irapuato, which was a great success and brought together more than 100 people. This presentation was the final touch to the round of presentations that Atlántica Agrícola Mexicana has been carrying out this year around different parts of the country such as Ensenada, Colima, Guadalajara and Zamora. After the different technical talks and presentation of our products, there was a surprise for the attendees: a simulated casino with AA letters with which we ended a truly exciting day.
