Vizag: Vibrant Ceramics Expo & Summit 2017 held its press meets in Vizag on 20th September, 2017. The primary reason to visit Vizag was to increase the awareness among the Ceramic Industry and also to prove the fact that they stand second after China when it comes to Ceramic Industry. Also, another noteworthy observation was made during the meet that if Indian Ceramics Industry starts importing Ceramics from Morbi, Gujarat, India can overtake all other nations who top the list in this industry like China. This is possible because of the presence of so many ports in and near Vishakhapatnam which will lead to very healthy trade relations with a number of eastern countries.
Vibrant Ceramics Expo and Summit (VCES), 2017 is being held from 16 to 19 November 2017 at Exhibition Center, near the town hall, Gandhinagar Gujarat (An initiative by Prime Minister, India – Mr. Narendra Modi). The event is spread across 50,000 square meter area with more than 250 exhibitors, 400+ brands, and ceramics in several sizes and designs under one roof. This will be a great deal for the buyers as the products are cheaper than China and have more stylish options than Italy.
