“The MosBuild trade fair is one of the key events in the exhibition calendar of Selena Group. Eastern markets are of strategic significance to Selena’s growth. What’s more, Russia is one of the few global markets which observed a strong economic growth in 2010 and where the market was on the mend – all of which had a positive effect on Selena Vostok’s results. We are intent on building our presence in the region both through implementation of new products and expansion of the existing distribution network” – says Krzysztof Domarecki, the CEO of Selena FM SA.
