Digital Connection

What is the Digital Connection?

Expo Riva Schuh & Gardabags offers buyers and exhibitors the opportunity to enhance their participation at the show by following a virtual business path: the Digital Connection, a digital platform accessible before, during and after the event.

I will gladly tell you about my experience at Expo Riva Schuh. The platform was very accessible and easy to use. Allows you to find suppliers by destination, price or country of origin. And at the very moment when it was not possible to travel, to have new partners, it helped me to have a new range of new suppliers. At that time we worked online, which was not as difficult as it seemed at first. It is possible that everyone approached the work professionally.
Thanks for the opportunity.

The experience I had last season at the first online edition of Expo Riva Schuh was positive. The organisation of the website was good and the consultation of the pages by customers was simple to use and intuitive. We made a lot of contacts, some of which resulted in orders. Relationships with customers are being consolidated for the next season too.

We can safely say that the use of Swapcard, the digital platform made available by Expo Riva Schuh during the January 2021 edition, concluded with very positive figures.
Exhibitors at the virtual fair gathered plenty of new contacts, creating interaction between national and international workers. Some of these contacts were subsequently transformed into orders, resulting in sales that are surely an important sign of recovery for the footwear sector.

The speed of dialogue and the simplicity of the platform assist a process of change which, in turn, provides an increased level of customer satisfaction.
Today’s customers demand something new every month or two and it is only thanks to technology that we can keep up with the needs of a forever-changing market.
