1. Chillventa 2014 Signals a Bright Outlook for the European Market
Chillventa 2014 was held in Nuremberg, Germany, from October 14 to 16.

A spokesperson from one manufacturer said, “In the first half of this year, growth slowed in emerging markets and some regions experienced contractions. However, while the economy in Europe remains challenging, the air conditioner market is maintaining growth on par with the previous year, and there are signs of growth in the second half of the year. Therefore, we may see annual growth of 5%.”
