"Polish market is very conservative and it really difficult to stay on the market because of high standards. However, it should be noted, if the company can not collaborate with such a trading network, such as Auchan Polska, it receives a status and loyalty not only to the Polish market, but also on the EU market. Clearly this trip can be called successful. For companies not only met and started to take the first steps with the representatives of Polish business, most importantly, they understand how the Polish market as it is on the entry. There is an understanding that they need a product with which the quality and packaging in which circumstances. Today Ukrainian confectionery companies are well represented in Poland. There are offices in Poland of such Ukrainian companies as "Millennium", "Roshen", "Milkiland".  In this exhibition we have had the task of introducing to polish retailers Ukrainian products with added value. I think Ukraine is an interesting trading partner for Poland and Poland may become the "bridge" through which Ukrainian goods will enter the European market"
