After a few years without participating in Escolar Office Brasil, we decided to return, the results were noticeable in the first few days. We brought several new releases, including two highlights, the gouache pen and the other pen, which were very well received by the public. The volume of customers interested in our launches was surprising, we imagined the event would be very popular, but it really exceeded our expectations. The fair is a great opportunity to do business, and what we saw in these four days of participation undoubtedly made us think about returning for the next edition.

The truth is that this fair was the best in our history. We were very surprised, we were already full on the first day, it exceeded all our expectations. This edition was a milestone because turns 50 and because of everything we have been through in the last two years with the pandemic. Customers bought 40% of what we expected, so it was a success, it was wonderful. We had a very good exchange with our customers and other colleagues in the sector.

We had a small movement before the pandemic and what we saw in this edition was very surprising, which shows that retailers were willing to come back to see the product up close. It is a very important moment to see the retailers and show all the products, the quality and the difference. Sestini's goal was to double its revenue this year compared to 2021. Due to the orders we have received since sales began, we will more than double it, so our growth will exceed 100%.

The number of visitors on the first day was incredible. I felt that visitation increased a lot. On the third day, when I saw some people, I had a very large audience that surprised me. This edition also saw a change in the retailer's vision of stationery for the present, with this audience highly valuing this type of product and showing a lot of interest. That's what I wanted for that product profile that I didn't feel like now. All of this is a large number of contacts that we see with great potential for new business.
