Mazaya
‘Seduce your senses’ was the slogan for shisha specialist Mazaya in highlighting best-sellers from its extensive range of over 150 flavours. A key mission at the Virtual Expo was to explain where it came from and to tell its story – visitors could even take a tour of its factory – and to underline the company’s strength in the shisha market.
