Trade Fair 2026

Bajada× The Growth Bully

MFCC Malta Trade Fair, 24 June onwards. The campaign that matches the moment.

Three Things Converge

👑

Group CEO

Daniel Bajada steps into Group CEO during this fair window.

💧

Water Pro Launches

€12 per month subscription. New commercial entity. Public debut.

☀️

PV Grant Window

Finite take-up curve. Highest-intent quarter Bajada will see this year.

The fair is the catalyst. Not the goal.

Each of these alone is a campaign. Together they are a category-defining quarter for Bajada Group, if we move now.

Brand Architecture

Old Positioning

BNE as the brand. Daniel as son of founder. Printed walls. Phone number on a vinyl banner. Same stand concept as 2018.

Worked once. Will not survive a Group CEO appointment and a subscription product launch.

New Positioning

Bajada Group as master brand. Daniel as Group CEO. BNE is one division. Water Pro is a launching division. Solar, Battery, Heat Pump are product zones underneath.

Daniel's new title gets a footprint that matches it.

12 × 6 Metres. Reads From Either Side.

12 METRES 6 M INSIDE → SOLAR BATTERY HEAT PUMP WATER PRO €12/MO ← INSIDE SOLAR BATTERY HEAT PUMP WATER PRO €12/MO BATTERY ZONE 01 SOLAR ZONE 02 · ROOF HEAT PUMP ZONE 03 iPad CAPTURE Hospitality · Photo Backdrop COFFEE · PASTIZZI · CENTRE STAGE iPad CAPTURE WATER PRO · HEADLINE €12 / MONTH · SUBSCRIPTION LAUNCH FAIR-FACING · MAXIMUM DWELL ← FAIR AISLE · APPROACH FROM EITHER DIRECTION →

Solar

Warm amber. Rooftop photography. "Solar = zero bill."

Battery

Graphite and teal. Night-time interiors. "Battery = AC stays on."

Heat Pump

Slate blue. Utility-room shots. "Half the bill. Same warmth."

Water Pro · Headline

Mineral blue, chalk white. €12 per month. Full-width fair-facing front.

iPad Capture × 2

Symmetrical. One station each end. Lead form on tablet, GHL pipeline tag, instant routing to right sales rep.

Side Wayfinding Banners

Flag-style panels on left + right edges. Tell visitors what is inside before they reach the front face, regardless of approach direction.

Symmetrical layout. Reads equally from both aisle approaches. Side wayfinding banners catch visitors approaching from either direction.

Pre. At. Post.

The System Bajada Has Never Had at a Fair.

ReusableBeyond fair
Component 02

RoutesSolar / Water / Heat / Battery
NotifyLive to phone
Component 03

Automation Sequence

5-email post-fair nurture. Behaviour-triggered branches. Drives to demo booking or Water Pro subscription. Builds inside GHL, runs forever.

Triggers onLead form submit
Duration30 days nurture

Every lead the fair captures becomes a customer. Or it does not. This is what decides.

Included in the €9,995 package. Asset stays with Bajada beyond the fair.

Water Pro. Launches Beside It.

LineCost
Water Pro interest-capture landing page (/waterpro, €12/mo offer preview, comparison vs bottled, interest signup form)€1,400
Water Pro on-stand zone (layout, headline positioning, demo flow, dispenser placement)€1,170
Water Pro creative production (€12/mo hook: static + reel pair + carousel + Maltese variant)€940
Water Pro interest nurture (5-email post-fair conversion sequence)€590
Subtotal€4,100
Retainer discount (15%)−€605
TOTAL€3,495

Launch identity (logo, lockup, palette, type, brand guide) already complete and paid. Not re-charged here.

Water Pro benefits at no extra cost from BNE-side investments: fair landing page, GHL form, on-site crew, stand fascia, project management.

Two Scenarios. One Recommendation.

Bajada Only

Defer Water Pro

€9,995

Fair fully delivered. Water Pro launch slips to Q3. Headline zone uses existing Bajada Water messaging instead of the new subscription product.

Bajada Package€9,995
Water Pro— deferred

Recommended

Bajada + Water Pro

€13,490

Fair fully delivered AND Water Pro launches publicly with proper landing page, on-stand zone, creative, and post-fair nurture. Three convergent moments locked.

Decomalta build (~€8K), ad spend, freebies and hardware are separate Bajada-side costs.
