We have supported 6 virtual fairs since the beginning of the pandemic. The Fource will be seventh. 613 companies, 28 thousand foreigners, 51 thousand visitors attended 6 fair organizations. 42 thousand job interviews were made in these events.”

The Fource will be bringing a new initiative to our food exports with the opportunities provided by the today’s world and technology,” Eskinazi added…
