International Leather Goods Fair 2002- fashion, novelty and motivation

21/08/2002

Messe Offenbach has announced that its 2002 International Leather Goods Fair will take place August 17-19.

The trade fair for leather goods, travel articles and bag fashion will this year present a collection of novelties, along with the latest trends in fashion for the second part of the winter season and spring 2003.

239 exhibitors from 20 countries will attend the event, with over 1000 collections. With 97 exhibitors coming from abroad and 142 from Germany, the organisers hope that the fair will both aid the continuation of international co-operation, and also revive consumer demand within Germany.

The fair will begin with the award of the German Shoe and Leather Goods Prize, followed by fashion shows. Accompanying the fair will be a motivation seminar for managers in the leather goods retail trade.
