da eski ziyaretçi oranlarını bu yıl<br />
göremedik.<br />
Fuarda görmek istediğiniz<br />
ziyaretçi profili nasıldır?<br />
Avrupa’daki ekonomi iyi bir<br />
düzeyde olduğu takdirde özellikle<br />
Avrupalı müşterileri fuarda görmek<br />
istiyoruz. Daha uzak lokasyonda<br />
yer alan Amerika ve Uzak Doğu<br />
gibi bölgelerden de ziyaretçiler<br />
alabilmek sektör adına önemli bir<br />
adım olur. Fakat Balkanlar, Arap<br />
Ülkeleri ve İran fuarın genel ziyaretçi<br />
profilini oluşturuyor. İç piyasa<br />
ziyaretçisinde de mağazacılıkta<br />
yeniliklere yer veren, yenilikleri takip<br />
eden ve mağazasına yeni bir şeyler<br />
katma arayışında olan müşterilerin<br />
gelmesini temenni ediyoruz.<br />
Dünyada hangi fuarlara<br />
katılım sağlıyorsunuz?<br />
Son 10 yıldır takip ettiğimiz Frankfurt<br />
Heimtextile Fuarı var. Domotex<br />
Hannover ve Guangzhou Çin fuarlarını<br />
da her yıl yerinde ziyaret ederek takip<br />
ediyoruz.<br />
Giz makes impression with bathroom and decorative<br />
carpets at Evteks<br />
DIY chains, carpet and home textile stores, shopping centers, furniture and<br />
foodstuff chains draw attention with a rich distribution network of Giz.<br />
Giz Dış Ticaret was born in 1999<br />
in Izmir. At the beginning,<br />
sheltering mostly doormats<br />
and rugs at its structure, shortly<br />
after the firm appears in front of us<br />
with bathroom rugs, armchair shawl,<br />
bedspreads, bedlinen sets, pillow<br />
covers and toss pillows and later with<br />
a rich collection such as decorative<br />
home products namely decorative<br />
items, vases, candleholders and<br />
bathroom groups. In order to know<br />
Giz Dış Ticaret closely that showed off<br />
the innovations in all these product<br />
groups at Evteks fair, we asked our<br />
questions to Can Çubukçu, official of<br />
the firm.<br />
What are your activities as Giz<br />
Halı? Which product groups<br />
take place at your structure?<br />
We serve through our rich product<br />
spectrum ranging from carpets to<br />
decorative items involved in the home<br />
decoration. The entire products in<br />
our structure which are used by the<br />
decorative purposes consisting of<br />
special items. We offer decorative<br />
rugs and the products in bathroom<br />
rugs. There is a concept that we<br />
have made up as a brand in all<br />
product groups. We take a place as<br />
a supplier firm that supply products<br />
to the carpet firms, home textile<br />
stores, shopping centers, DIY chains<br />
and furniture firms. Everything<br />
is accomplished under Giz brand<br />
ranging from design to product<br />
stage. We have the products that<br />
made via producer firms both in the<br />
home and abroad. In recent times,<br />
regarding valuation of the US dollar,<br />
new customs duties, we have reduced<br />
our product gamut in imports and<br />
begun to have the products made in<br />
the domestic market. While working<br />
in the imports with the countries<br />
such as Italy, China, India, Egypt<br />
and America; as for the exports we<br />
contact mostly with neighboring<br />
countries such as Bulgaria, North<br />
Iraq, Georgia, Azerbaijan and Greece.<br />
What kind of distribution<br />
is there in the exports and<br />
domestic market activities of<br />
the brand?<br />
We act mostly in the domestic<br />
market. We work continuously with<br />
DIY chains such as Koçtaş, Bauhaus,<br />
Özdilek, Tekzen and Metro. As for<br />
foodstuff, our products take place<br />
in the firms such as Carrefour and<br />
Tesco. In addition, consumers reach<br />
our products via various stores in<br />
several provinces throughout Turkey.<br />
How was Evteks fair from the<br />
viewpoint of you?<br />
Without being limited with Evteks<br />
fair, when looked at through a wide<br />
viewpoint, all fairs across the world<br />
are observed that losing blood. We<br />
felt reflections of this intensively in<br />
Evteks fair as well. Taking place at<br />
Hall 10 makes up quite disadvantage<br />
when compared to Hall 1 and 2. As<br />
for one of biggest reasons of this, its<br />
position remains remote from the<br />
main building and having gathered<br />
of big firms mostly at Hall 1 and 2.<br />
We experience difficulty regarding<br />
both location and situation which<br />
is comprised of market conditions.<br />
Regarding these factors, we could not<br />
see previous visitor rates this year.<br />
How about visitor profile that<br />
you want to see at the fair?<br />
In case, the European economy<br />
becomes in a good level of course we<br />
want to see the European customers<br />
at the fair. Being able to get visitors<br />
- who take place at more far regions<br />
such as in America and the Far East<br />
- would be a crucial step on behalf of<br />
the sector. But the Balkans, Arabian<br />
countries and Iran constitute the<br />
general profile of the fair. As for the<br />
domestic visitors, we wish customers<br />
who give place to innovations,<br />
tracking innovations and searching<br />
for new things to add to their stores.<br />
Do you participate in which<br />
fairs in the world?<br />
There is Frankfurt Heimtextile Fair<br />
we track for the last 10 years. We<br />
also follow Domotex Hannover and<br />
Guangzhou China fairs in place<br />
visiting every year.
