Is it still November?
Doing daily grocery shoppings I wonder, is it really still November? The weather is still autumnish, but the shops are full of colorful and glittering Christmas bric-a-brac, typical blood-sausages and traditional Christmas bread with raisins and hazels. The advent hasn't started yet, but we are on a sledge towards the very special holiday season already. Let us get the mood!
Since planning for the end of the year is actual at this time of the year, then we have received some special offers for members: - Christmas venues from Unique Hotels that have 2 cosy hotels in Tallinn with excellent possibilities for Christmas celebrations; - Christmas-related IT design works - webbanners, electronic Christmas cards, etc from the chamber's website designer Siim Vinter. Keep an eye on the offers for members at our website!
And a reminder not to forget that the Danish-Estonian Chamber of Commerce's Christmas celebration will take place on Friday, December 10th starting at 5pm. The other chambers' christmas events are listed in the end of our newsletter. Pay attention that you wouldn't double-book yourself.
Yet, before Christmas we shall have the opportunity to meet with Mr Jan Vistisen, the CEO of Branding Estonia O� and visit his business Estonian Expo Center. Read more below.
See you at the upcoming events!
Merli Lindberg
* NB! Before your calendar is fully booked for Christmas, please book the Danish-Estonian Chamber of Commerce's Christmas party for December 10th at 17:00. |

Deadline for jule�l orders is over!!!
The chamber announced the possibility to order special Danish Christmas Beer in the beginning of the last week since, the J-day as always, took place the first Friday of November - this year on November 5th.  The kind possibility was made available by Marco Iovino and Tommy Jensen, both our active chamber members. Thanks to Tommy and Marco many families will be able to enjoy "a little Dane" along with their Christmas dinners. Let us hope that we'll have the same offer available next year again! If you missed the possibility to order beer then there's still possibility to order wine. Place your orders for Italian wine (see pricelist below) with Marco Iovino miovino.redbaron@hotmail.com |
