Yacht & Boat Korea will be held in the shipbuilding province of Gyeongsangnam in South Korea and has attracted more than 130 exhibitors from 14 countries.
“Given the incentives provided to companies to attend this show it is a good opportunity to reinforce the Australian Marine Industry and ensure when the Korean market matures we are established in this market place and ready to take advantage of the business that this market is sure to eventuate” said AIMEX CEO MaryAnne Edwards.
