CROTOUR 2009
International Tourism Fair
April 1-5, 2009
Here is an exciting and low-cost opportunity to promote your travel and tourism business to European travelers at the CROTOUR International Tourism Fair, taking place on April 1-5, 2009 in Croatia. As part of an ongoing effort to promote U.S. Travel destinations, the Unites States Commercial Service is offering a very affordable opportunity for your California travel and tourism business to promote your products and services to European Travelers at CROTOUR 2009.
Option 1:
Free! (Quick turn-around opportunity – February 15,
2009 registration deadline)The U.S. Commercial Service
will be hosting a U.S. Pavilion to highlight U.S. travel
destinations at CROTOUR 2009. Here we will showcase and
distribute your company’s promotional literature at no
cost! (Your only cost will be the cost of your
promotional materials and their shipping). This is a unique
opportunity to reach travelers throughout the growing South East
European market and to expand your company’s exposure in a
cost-effective, highly targeted manner.
You will have the opportunity to promote your company by sending in 250 promotional packets and 25 press kits (optional) with photo CD’s to share with interested journalists. We also welcome your promotional DVDs, giveaways, and destination posters. This will be your only cost to promote your company to European Travelers at CROTOUR 2009.
Once again, this is a quick turn-around opportunity. The registration deadline is February 15, 2009, and all marketing materials must be received by March 15, 2009. Shipping options and instructions will be provided to you upon receipt of registration.
