German Perspective - 25.10.11
What happened this week: All eyes were focussed on the Lineapelle in Bologna. The number of visitors was not too bad although as usual the first and the last day were much less attended. However, a lot of visitors from all over the world were seen and one could recognise that many had just come to get a better feel for the market and to meet with customers and colleagues to discuss the present situation of the market. People have not been sure about the situation for quite some time now and so they took the chance to have the concentrated number of tanners, leather buyers and raw material people in one place.
