Exhibition Stand Builder
in Bologna

Evreka Stand designs, produces and installs custom exhibition stands at BolognaFiere and across Italy. Local production, bilingual coordination, 700+ projects globally.

Why BolognaFiere?

BolognaFiere is Italy's third-largest exhibition venue with 375,000+ sqm of indoor space across 19 pavilions. The complex hosts 30+ major international trade shows annually and serves as the leading B2B exhibition hub for Italian and pan-European industry verticals — cosmetics, ceramics, construction, agricultural machinery, leather, and children's publishing.

For non-Italian exhibitors, the venue's strength is also its challenge — Italian-language coordination, specific fire-safety standards (UNI 7821), and venue-specific contractor protocols. Evreka Stand handles all of that for you.

Local Production Strategy

Bilingual PM coordination

TR-EN project manager as primary contact; Italian-language venue coordination handled through local partner network. Zero translation burden on client.

Do you produce locally in Italy?

Yes. We operate from Istanbul HQ with a partner production network across Italy and Europe. For Bologna projects, local production means no international freight cost, no customs delay risk, and full compliance with Italian exhibition fire-safety regulations (UNI 7821 standard). Pre-build sample approval handled remotely; final assembly on-site in Bologna.

What's your typical Bologna lead time?

Brief alignment minimum 6 weeks before show date. 3D concept within 7 business days. Italian regulatory documentation (electrical CE-marking, fire-rated materials) handled in parallel during design phase. Build-up window typically 2-4 days at BolognaFiere; we deploy a senior PM + 4-person install crew.

How does Bologna freight from Turkey work?

Two routing options: (1) Sea freight Istanbul to Trieste then truck to Bologna — 7-10 days, lowest cost. (2) Direct truck via the Balkans — 5-7 days, mid cost, more reliable in winter. For projects where local Italian sourcing is more economical (heavy/bulky structural elements), we use our partner workshop in Northern Italy.

Do you handle Italian customs?

Yes. ATA Carnet for temporary import (most common for stand materials), VAT registration for permanent goods, and CE certification documentation for electrical equipment. Our PM coordinates with BolognaFiere's logistics desk and Italian customs broker — you receive a single delivery confirmation.

Language coordination — Turkish, English, Italian?

Your project manager is bilingual TR-EN as the primary contact. Italian-language coordination with BolognaFiere venue authorities, local subcontractors, and Italian regulatory bodies is handled through our local partner network. You never need to translate or coordinate Italian-language operations yourself.
