Beyond making the sector of live plants and ornamentals visible, the Association of Colombian Nurseries and Ornamental Growers, Colviveros, is opening new commercial spaces for Colombian producers. The Parisian concept of the 400 square meters Street of Live Plants being exhibited by this new Association at the Colombian Home Fair at Corferias Convention Center in Bogotá, became the main attraction of the event due to its color and visual appeal. It is estimated that more than 300,000 potential buyers will attend this trade fair that began on August 31 and will run until September 16, 2017, the date on which Colombian people celebrate Love and Friendship Day.
Jairo Cadavid, President of Colviveros, said that the Home Fair is an extraordinary opportunity not only to sell plants and ornamentals, but to teach the end consumer how to care for them and where to locate them in order to achieve a greater purchase satisfaction. The trade association leader concluded by saying, "The Colombian market has an extraordinary potential that we will develop with our producers."
