We feel that by being part of Subcon, we can showcase our advancement, our new products, our equipment and development. On top of that, attending the show enables me to look for a certain type of customer to add to our portfolio.” “I am looking for one or two new customers a year because I want to add a significant value to the business that we can grow with.” If you’re interested in finding out more about PRV Engineering come and visit us on stand H15.
