Offenbach leather fair sees higher turnout

05/10/2004

Offenbach International Leather Goods Fair – Summer Styles – ran from 25 to 28 September and was viewed as a success by the organisers. As many as 213 exhibitors from 21 countries exhibited their new collection for spring/ summer 2005 and trade professionals from 46 countries were present at the fair.

 

The number of visitors exceeded the organisers’ expectations, reaching 5500, 30% more than the I. L. M Winter Styles event in March. The interest focused on colour bags and activity was noted in the standard and business areas. The buyers were interested in business articles and small leather goods but also in luggage, school and sports bag development.
