Festuris in search of investors worlwide

Festuris – Gramado Tourism Trade Fair is taking part, within a period of a month, in five international fairs. The first was FITUR (International Tourism Fair) in Madrid, Spain, last January.

This week, the entrepreneur Marta Rossi, director of Festuris, is going to attend BIT (Borsa Internazionale del Turismo) in Milan, Italy, to be held from 17 to 20 February. Still this month, the tourist trade fair with the best return for the Latin American trade will take part at BTL (Lisbon International Fair), in Portugal; at ANATO, in Bogota, Colombia and also at The New York Times Travel Show, in the United States.

The directors of Festuris aim to consolidate the event as a stage for world tourist business and to seek for investors interested in the South American market. Festuris has been, in the other hand, the main event to divulge the town of Gramado and Rio Grande do Sul State worldwide. A reason for this success is the strategic localization of Gramado, close to the MERCOSUL countries Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay and near São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro cities, besides the fact of being the second largest entrance gate of tourists in Brazil.
