In particular, 80 companies have travelled from Turkey, 15 from Brazil, 11 from Egypt and 6 from Iran. These figures are also supported by numerous international delegations of buyers, architects and importers of slabs and technologies from the United States, Canada, Russia and the Maghreb (Egypt, Algeria and Tunisia), crucial areas for the development of exclusive and luxury projects.<\/p>\n<p>It has been a very satisfactory experience in terms of business opportunities, as we cannot forget that the building materials sector is being affected by a crisis in the logistics sector.<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-10445\" src=\"https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac3-225x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac3-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac3-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac3-1152x1536.png 1152w, https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac3.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-10439\" src=\"https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac2-225x300.png\" alt=\"Marcelino Group en Marmomac\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac2-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac2-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac2-1152x1536.png 1152w, https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac2.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>Changes in consumer behaviour and global logistics crisis<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Consumer habits have changed, online shopping and the demand for cargo space have skyrocketed. This has led to a peak in demand for products manufactured in China which, together with the reduction of personnel at ports, has led to an increase in logistics prices.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the costs of shipping a product to Europe from Asia are 10 times higher than in May 2020. In the construction sector in particular, there has been an average cost increase of 22.2%, which has led to numerous cancellations or stoppages of construction work.<\/p>\n<p>After our experience at the fair and discussions with our customers, we wondered whether we should not create synergies and act together to try to change the length of the supply chain, promoting more local manufacturing, within the EU, to help reverse this logistics crisis and improve the European economy.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the economic effort required to attend this fair with our own stand, at Marcelino Group we continue to invest in this type of event in order to consolidate the company&#8217;s image abroad, analyse what the competition is doing, promote our products and innovations and consolidate relations with new and existing customers.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10442 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac4-1024x768.png\" alt=\"Marcelino Group in Marmomac\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac4-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac4-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac4-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac4-1536x1152.png 1536w, https:\/\/grupimar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/marmomac4.png 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>From our time at Marmomac, we would like to highlight the joy that could be seen in both exhibitors and visitors.\u00a0 We met again at an event, strengthening ties with partners, customers and suppliers in a warmer way than by sending emails or video calls.\u00a0 We enjoyed every visit to our stand and the impressions we received from our catalogue of works and products.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you Marmomac and see you in 2022!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":null,"protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":10460,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[136],"tags":[137,138],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.2.1 -
