5. PRODUCT COLLECTION – APAS Show 2017
APAS’ Social Responsibility department will collect surplus products from the APAS Show 2017
EXHIBITORS for donations to the non-profit institution Canto Cidadão, which will distribute them among
other entities.
In recent years, this policy has been a great success, benefiting thousands of people in need, and
helping us reach our goal of collecting 304 tons of a wide range of products for donation. Looking to
increase these figures, we are hereby disclosing the planning schedule for this year’s action:
Starting in March 2017 and throughout the Show, APAS’ Social Responsibility department
will contact the exhibiting companies to check the availability of products for donation.
We will send a specific previous notice on the matter, so that all EXHIBITORS may join the
campaign.
During the event, a sticker will be delivered to EXHIBITORS supporting the campaign, to be
displayed on their booths.
Exhibitors can confirm their donations in advance by calling +55 11 3647-5039 – APAS
Show 2017 Collection Action, or sending an email to [email protected].
Once the donation is confirmed, an identified team will be make the rounds to participating
booths on 5/5, after the event has ended, to pick up the products.
The campaign’s results will be announced in our communication outlets, APAS Acontece magazine and
newsletter. After this publication, any information about the donation or other issues related to the Social
Responsibility department can be obtained by calling Rose Pavan at +55 11 3647-5039.
6. INSURANCE
APAS, Promovisão and the event organizers shall not be liable for damages or losses to any persons

person to whom they have facilitated or allowed entrance to the event.
The event’s organizers recommend that, at their own discretion and in accordance with the
legislation in force, each EXHIBITOR acquires insurance for their booths, products, assets and
staff.
7. SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

the EXHIBITORS on the technical instructions issued by the State of São Paulo FIRE DEPARTMENT.

7.5 COMBUSTION ENGINES
No combustion engines shall be operated inside the exhibit hall.
7.6 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

ALL INSTALLERS MUST WEAR SAFETY HELMETS DURING INSTALLATION AND DISMANTLE,
AND WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE EXHIBIT HALL WHILE WEARING SANDALS.
The exhibit hall’s firefighting and inspection teams will inspect the installation and dismantle of the
Show, and demand compliance with this norm.
13
7.7 EXHIBIT HALL ACCESS
Only registered employees or subcontractors of the INSTALLATION CONTRACTORS will be granted
access to the exhibit hall to perform the installation and dismantle works. Therefore, they must carry
their respective badges and identification documents at all times. Clothing should be suited to the
installation environment, such as a uniform or shirt, long trousers, sneakers or shoes, and PPE.
IMPORTANT: Entrance will be prohibited for people without a shirt, or wearing shorts, dresses
or skirts, as well as those wearing slippers, sandals or open shoes during the installation and

8.3 INSTALLATION AND DISMANTLE CONDITIONS
8.3.1 LOADING AND UNLOADING AREA
A parking fee per hour or fraction thereof shall apply to vehicles using the loading/unloading area, as
per list posted at the entrance to this area.
Vehicles are only allowed in the loading and unloading area for this specific purpose, and exhibitors or
installation contractors are prohibited from using this area during, both installation and dismantle, to
park their vehicles, store any materials or reserve any parking spots.
Failure to comply with these rules shall result in the payment of charges to be defined by Management.
8.3.2 ACCESS TO LOADING AND UNLOADING AREA
Blue, White, Green and Red Exhibit Halls - Entrance will be through Rua Cel. Marques Ribeiro, 200
– Gate 4;
Red Exhibit Hall - Access to the side hallway of the Red Exhibit Hall will be closed at 8 pm, and
gates C8, C9 and C10 will be closed at 9 pm, in compliance with the city noise ordinance (Psiu). In
this case, the installers can only access this entrance the day after the event, at 8 am;
Yellow Exhibit Hall - The entrance will be through Rua Galatéa – Gate 9.
8.3.3 DISMANTLE
In principle, the dismantling of the Trade Show will start soon after its end, and, with regards to access
to the loading and unloading area, will follow the plan agreed upon at the logistics meeting.
On the dismantle date, no vehicle will be allowed in the loading and unloading area before the times set.
Therefore, everyone should avoid arriving too far in advance of the times established for each Trade
Show, as that may back up the traffic flow in the region, since there is no specific place to leave
the vehicles while drivers wait for the loading and unloading areas to open.
17
As explained above, exhibitors and installation contractors are not allowed to use the loading and
unloading area to reserve any spots or to store any materials to be loaded onto the vehicles at a later
moment – in other words, all material must be moved directly from the interior of the hall directly onto
the vehicle for which it is intended. Any violation of these rules will be subject to a penalty imposed by
the event’s organizers.
8.3.4 FINAL CONSIDERATIONS
In addition to complying with the general rules of traffic, drivers must observe safe driving standards in
the parking lots, in particular the following:
Observe a 20 kph (12 mph) speed limit;
Do not sound the horn or make any loud noise that could disrupt the neighbors or the activities of the
Trade Show;
Do not drive dangerously or recklessly;
Observe any instructions from parking staff, as well as the existing signs;
Help keep the parking lot clean and well-preserved;
If you have any questions, please call: +55 11 2089-0281
These rules are valid for 2017, but may be changed at any time, upon thirty (30) days’ notice.
9. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE DURING THE EVENT
All aisles must be covered with carpeting, and each EXHIBITOR must ensure that they are cleaned and
well maintained, taking some precautions such as:
Restocking products using trolleys equipped with pneumatic wheels (air-filled rubber tires);
When cleaning and sweeping the booths, making sure that the dirt is not dumped onto the streets,
but rather collected into plastic bags or placed in the proper bins, according to the type of waste,
observing the proper schedule;
When restocking liquid products (water, beverages in general) and ice, making sure to keep them in
closed containers or in the proper packaging while on the way to the booth, preventing any spillage
on the carpets. These products must enter exclusively through the service entrance, and will be
inspected by the security staff, who may refuse entry if the products are found to be out-of-
specification;
Packages, products and leftovers must be discarded in the trash cans in the exhibition hall’s aisles,
according to the type of waste (e.g., recyclable, organic, etc.);
18
EXHIBITORS with a freezer or an air-conditioning unit in the booth must request a water hook-up for
the water discharged;
Each EXHIBITOR is responsible for cleaning the inside and the front walls of the booth, and may hire
a specialized company to perform such services;
Trash from inside the booths can only be taken out during the maintenance break; placing the trash
bags against the columns, in the event’s trash cans or in the middle of the aisles is prohibited,
subject to a fine of R$ 500 per violation;

9. WASTE GENERATING ACTIVITIES
EXHAUST
To use an electric stove on their booths, EXHIBITORS must observe and comply with all safety
regulations, and make sure to use some kind of exhaust, directing the smell and smoke to above the
booth, so as not to disturb the neighboring booths.
TRASH
For actions that generate excess trash, the EXHIBITOR must provide for appropriate collection bins and
waste transportation, in order to assist the work of the cleaning crew and the proper operation of the
Trade Show. Exhibitor Services must be notified of these actions during the pre-event stage.
Failure to comply with the standards above will subject the EXHIBITOR to the penalties described under
FINES.
10. USE OF ELECTRIC STOVES/OVENS
EXHIBITORS using an electric stove on their booths must observe and comply with all safety
regulations, and make sure to use some kind of exhaust, directing the smell and smoke to above the
booth.
11. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS
The planning, management and distribution of the services for the installation of the water and electric
hook-ups will be carried out by the company contracted by APAS: ENGEVE AND ENGINEERING
EVENTS.
The electric energy for the exhibit hall is provided by AES Eletropaulo, under the responsibility of Expo
Center Norte. The electrical installations of the booths must fully comply with the provisions of Brazilian
Standard NBR5410 – Low-Voltage Electrical Installations.
The use of flame-retardant cables with double mechanical insulation (PP type) and thermomagnetic
circuit breakers are required.
For technical-operational safety purposes, APAS is exclusively responsible for supplying and
connecting power from the existing electricity distribution boards in the Expo Center Norte exhibit hall to
the location of the electrical distribution center of each booth. The EXHIBITOR/ INSTALLATION
THE INSTALLATION PROVIDER FOUND TO BE IN VIOLATION OF THIS RULE will be fined
R$ 1,500 in the first hour and R$ 500 per additional hour, until the violation is corrected.
42
CONTRACTOR is not allowed to access the electrical panels, water pipes and air-conditioning vents of
the exhibit hall, which can only be operated by the contractor in charge or the technical staff of Expo
Center Norte. Any cost charged to the promoter regarding the above will be automatically charged to
the EXHIBITOR in charge.
Each EXHIBITOR/ INSTALLATION CONTRACTOR is responsible for complementing the electrical
installation and distribution in the booth, providing the power input with a “C” class circuit breaker
compatible with the electricity demand. The general circuit breaker and other devices used to protect
the electrical circuits must be enclosed within a non-combustible frame, equipped with a door, fixed in a
place where it is easily accessible to the promoter’s maintenance staff, even outside the event’s
opening hours.
In compliance with the requirements of NBR-5410, NR 10 and Expo Center Norte, the EXHIBITOR /
INSTALLATION CONTRACTOR also undertakes to ground all booths made out of metal, whether it is
out of iron or aluminum, connecting them to the ground wire, which is next to the electrical hook-up, in
order to prevent electric shocks.
Electricity will be supplied in a non-fractional kVA unit at the three-phase voltage of 380V, 60hz – 3
phases with neutral and earth and 220V single-phase during the event. Lamps, air conditioners and
other equipment must have an operating voltage of 220 V. For 127 v (110V) voltage, the EXHIBITOR
must use required power transformers.
The power cables used to supply electric power to the booths and to the other needs of the events held
in the Expo Center Norte exhibit halls will have a female plug, brand PCE at their end, to which the
requester’s load will be connected.
PCE plugs are compatible with those mlanufactured by Steck, which is the most popular brand in the
Brazilian market. This type of connection, also called a plug-in connection, will minimize the risk of
accidents due to short circuit, electric shock or phase reversal, which can cause the equipment to fail.
Below is the table with the description of the male plugs of the PCE and Steck brands required for the
connection with the female plug of the power feeder cable that will be delivered by Expo Center Norte:
Gauge of cable supplied with PCE female plug
PCE brand plug required for connection
Reference of the Steck male plug compatible with the PCE female
plug
Image of the Steck male plug
6 sqmm 0252-6 s-5276
10 sqmm 035-6 s-5576
43
Any other male plug or connector compatible with the PCE female plug may be used, provided that it is
compliant with the NBR IEC 60309-1.
The female plugs installed in the power supply cables that will be supplied by Expo Center Norte will be
the following:
For 6 sqmm cables, 5-pin female connector (extension), PCE brand, reference: 2252-6;
For 10 sqmm cables, 5-pin female connector (extension), PCE brand, reference: 235-6.
The gauge of the cable and the type of plug that will be effectively supplied to the booth and other event
needs will depend on the total electric load to be supplied and the technical availability at the time of
installation.
The installation contractors, electricity service providers, EXHIBITORS and promoters must provide the
appropriate means of connection with the new format for electric hook-up provided by Expo Center
Norte as of January 1, 2017.
The installation contractors approved by the Expo Center Norte, and contracted by the event’s promoter
to supply the electrical hook-ups to the booths may be consulted for any necessary technical
clarifications.
Connections for loads above 30 kVA must be requested in advance from the electrical installation
contractor contracted so that they can take the necessary technical measures.
The loads installed at the booth and the loads for the event’s other needs must be properly balanced
between the three phases in the power distribution board that will be fed.
The amperage rating of the “C” class general circuit breaker of the electrical panel must be compatible
with the total load installed, in accordance with Brazilian Standard NBR 5410.
Irregular or non-standard interconnections with the power plug provided by Expo Center Norte will not
be allowed.
Any damage caused to cables or plugs owned by Expo Center Norte will be charged to the installation
contractors or exhibitors.

12. SPECIAL LIGHTING
Any booth using special lighting, such as spotlights, light cannons, laser cannons, halogen lamps, and
others, must install such equipment in special structures with capacity to support the weight thereof, and
in a way that does not pose risks to the other EXHIBITORS, the attendees and the installers
themselves.
The luminous parts, the reactors and the constituents of the electrical panel of the lighting device cannot
touch the installation. They must be packaged in isolation, thus preventing any risk of shock to people.
Special lighting designs should be detailed through the floor plan and prospect and shipped to Exhibitor
Services by the deadline set out in this guide.
NOTE: All metal elements of the installation must be grounded, in accordance with Brazilian Standards
NBR 5410 and NR 10.

Each and every layout must have someone responsible for it, and be submitted in advance to the

Clothing that does not convey the businesslike attitude required in a TRADE SHOW is strictly
forbidden;
For a good relationship between the event’s organizers and the EXHIBITOR, two people must be
named for contact when registering the company on the website;
Amplified sound is strictly forbidden in an open environment. Violation of the above rule may
result in a fine or embargo of the booth by the event’s promoter. For more information on
sound, see the PROMOTIONAL ACTIONS AND FINE chapter in the Exhibitor’s Guide;
We understand that the purpose of the EXHIBITOR’s participation is to serve its clients. Therefore,
we urge EXHIBITORS to keep their employees in their own booths. By doing so, everyone will be
able to properly serve their customers and friends. Costumed promoters will only be allowed inside
the booths. If the promoter needs to leave the booth, he/she must take off the costume (or part of it),
70
and no soliciting nor distributing outside the booth. If this rule is violated, the EXHIBITOR shall pay a
fine;
Service personnel: All outsourced service personnel must be identified by a badge and vest or
uniform, and must be properly instructed as to the behavior and functions of origin;
All demonstration techniques will be allowed, provided they are strictly developed within the leased
area, observing the limitations contained in this guide;
EXHIBITORS who offer product tasting should keep enough containers in their booths to collect and
bag the residues, and must bring them to the main waste bin whenever filled;
Any tasting or distribution of giveaways, samples and leaflets shall be limited to the booth interior.
The event’s organizers may interrupt such actions if they gather large crowds that could disrupt the
normal flow of event attendees.
FINAL REMARKS
The APAS 2017 EXHIBITOR declares being aware of the terms of this regulation and undertakes to
follow it fully, not only during the installation, exhibit and dismantle of the event, but also at any time or
situation that may result from such participation.
Any doubts arising from this regulation will be explained by APAS. The Courts of the City of São Paulo
are hereby elected to resolve any disputes between the parties.

Supermarket Association of São Paulo State (APAS)
IMPORTANT: EXHIBITORS are advised to make sure of the ability of their installation
contractor, by visiting their headquarters and checking inventories and contracted or
outsourced personnel, since in previous years there were problems with the INSTALLATION
CONTRACTORS, which overestimated their installation capacity while working on several
booths at the same time and failed to deliver within schedule.
