What Kodo makes of it

Kodo matches every exhibitor to a company and separates machine dealers and tool suppliers from manufacturers. For the manufacturers, Kodo adds what they turn and mill, which industries they supply and whether a new hall or open positions are coming. The result is on your salesperson's conversation list, with contact and source.
