Important Notice from Messe Berlin to Exhibitors regarding Unofficial Indices of Exhibitors

In the past few months, many of our exhibitors have received proposals from a company registered in Mexico called Commercial Online Manuals S de RL de CV. The letter, under the reference “Your data update ”, offers to include company information in an index for fairs and exhibitions called “Expo Guide”, which entry is subject to a fee governed by certain pre-requisites. To our knowledge, the order forms sent have already been filled out, providing the name of our fair, the fair dates and the contact information of the exhibitors.  The fine print of these forms indicates that upon their being signed, a contract is concluded for three (3) years that will generate costs of € 1,571.00 US$ per annum.

Since many exhibitors have been receiving these proposals, we wish to make clear that the registrations offered to be made in the “Expo Guide” are not entries in the official index of exhibitors for CMS – Cleaning. Management. Services.

Messe Berlin is not connected in any way whatsoever to the publishers of the “Expo Guide”.

We wish to indicate to our exhibitors that Messe Berlin either produces its catalogues itself or awards exclusive contracts for the production and marketing of such catalogues.  Any publishing firms we work with will introduce themselves to the exhibitors as the exclusive catalogue publisher for Messe Berlin or the respective fair project.

For CMS – Cleaning. Management. Services., our exclusive partner is:

Verlag für Messepublikationen Thomas Neureuter GmbH in Essen

in collaboration with: Service-Hotline Virtual Market Place®

Once exhibitors have been admitted to a fair, their basic entry in the official fair catalogue is assured. Furthermore, all exhibitors will be contacted by the service hotline of Virtual Market Place so that they may complete their entries in the printed catalogue and the online index should they so desire.

Please feel free to contact us at any time should you receive a proposal and have doubts as regards the party submitting such proposal. If you have already signed an agreement with an external offeror in the erroneous assumption that this company is connected in any way to our official index of exhibitors, we urgently recommend that you contact an attorney prior to expiry of the period for revoking and/or voiding such contracts.

The Virtual Market Place® is an exclusive service for exhibitors on the CMS website. Exhibiting companies can present their brands, products and services year-around, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Corporate entries on the Virtual Market Place® lead to a high ranking among the top results on Google and other major internet search engines. Exhibitors can update their information at any time at no extra charge. Support is provided throug a hotline staffed by multilingual assistants.

Many CMS trade visitors and exhibitors prepare their trade show visit by utilizing the Virtual Market Place® ahead of time. This is where you can

• Schedule meetings with a few mouse clicks
• Plan your visits clearly laid out print view with integrated map of the exhibition site
• Request further information via e-mail
