Clive Meir, Director, Shear-Form said: "Sales and enquiries leading up to the show for Haeger insertion presses were rather slow, so I am pleased that we attended as there has definitely been a marked upturn in enquiries and the level of business we have achieved.
What has pleased me most is that the majority of the recent sales are a direct result of companies visiting us on the stand.
Also to show a brand new machine on the stand and to sell one so soon after, makes the whole exercise worthwhile.".
