5 Brief facts about the host nation and city Colombia is one of the three countries that emerged from the collapse of Gran Colombia in 1830(the others are Ecuador and Venezuela). In January2011, Colombia assumed a nonpermanent seat on the UN Security Council for the term. Location: Northern South America, bordering the Caribbean Sea, between Panama and Venezuela, and bordering the North Pacific Ocean, between Ecuador and Panama Area: Total: 1,138,910 sq km Natural resources: Petroleum, natural gas, coal, iron ore, nickel, gold, copper, emeralds, hydropower Land use: Arable land: 2.01%permanent crops: 1.37% other: 96.62% Population: 45,239,079 Ethnic groups: Mestizo 58%, white 20%, mulatto 14%, black 4%, mixed black-amerindian 3%, Amerindian 1% Language: Spanish (official) Religions: Roman Catholic 90%, other 10% Age structure: 0-14 years: 26.7% (male 6,109,495/female 5,834,273); years: 67.2% (male 14,826,008/female 15,208,799)65 years and over: 6.1% (male 1,159,691/female 1,587,277) Major cities - population: BOGOTA (capital) million; Medellin million; Cali million; Barranquilla 1.836million; Bucaramanga million (2009) Bogotá City: 5
6 Bogotá, the capital of Colombia, located in the center of the country on a vast plain at 2,600 meters above sea level and with a moderate temperature has a population of eight million people from all corners of Colombia; a city as diverse as the entire country. Declared World Book Capital by UNESCO and Iberoamerican Capital of Culture by the UCCI, Bogotá has become one of the most important cities of the continent, with public spaces such as plazas, streets and modern avenues. Its Mass Transit System is considered one of the most important in Latin America and a model for transportation systems in the country and the continent. The city has the world s largest bicycling network the Ciclovía, which covers close to 300 kilometers. Bogotá has earned a place among the major gastronomic capitals of Latin America. Its six dining areas with world-class restaurants offer local and international cuisine. The city was listed by the New York Times as one of the 31 destinations to visit in Climate: Temperature ranges from 12º C to 18º C Economy - overview: Colombia's consistently sound economic policies and aggressive promotion of free trade agreements in recent years have bolstered its ability to face external shocks. Real GDP grew 5.7%in 2011 and inflation ended 2011 at 3.7%, continuing almost a decade of strong economic performance. All three major ratings agencies have upgraded Colombia 's investment grade. Nevertheless, Colombia depends heavily on oil exports, making it vulnerable to a drop in oil prices. Economic development is stymied by inadequate infrastructure, weakened further by recent flooding. Moreover, the unemployment rate of 10.8% in 2011 is still one of Latin America's highest. The US-Colombia Free Trade Agreement (FTA) was ratified by the US Congress in October 2011 and is pending implementation in Columbia has signed or is negotiating FTAs with a number of other countries, including Canada, Chile, Mexico, Switzerland, the EU, Venezuela, South Korea, Turkey, Japan, and Israel. Foreign direct investment - notably in the oil sector - reached a record $10 billion in 2008 but dropped to $7.2billion in 2009, before beginning to recover in 2010, and it appears to have reached a record high$13 billion in Colombia is the third largest Latin American 6
7 exporter of oil to the US. Inequality, underemployment, and narcotrafficking remain significant challenges, and Colombia s infrastructure requires major improvements to sustain economic expansion. Pre-Fair activities: The website of the VII Alimentec Corferias 2012 Trade fair provided a free complimentary feature to all the participating exhibitors. The feature was the facility to put up a Virtual Stand in their website. These virtual stands as the name implies was supposed to be an online promotional tool for the participants prior to the actual fair. The virtual stand of Spices Board was created by me, with support and help of the publicity section. The virtual stand put up was a success, in drawing the attention of the people towards the participation of the Board in the event. An unique feature that came along with this virtual stand was the ability to trace the number of times it has been viewed by people online. Till 30/9/2012 there have been around 129 visits to the Virtual stand of the board. Touch Down at El Dorado Airport, Bogotá I reached El Dorado international airport on the night of 17 th June, 2012 from New Delhi via Frankfurt in Lufthansa Setting up of the stall The next day i.e. 18 th June 2012, was fully devoted to setting up of the stand in the trade fair. 19 th June 2012, Day 1 The fair opened for exhibitors in 9 am on 19 th June, 2012 and was opened to the public at 12 pm.

Photography of the shelves containing the spices was not allowed. The spices did not have any brand name and were packed as per the customer s requirement. Some observations: 1.
