1956 saw the ‘Grosse Deutsche Schuhmusterschau’ (Great German Shoe Fair) open its doors for the first time and the event is celebrating its 100^th anniversary next year.

Its grand anniversary in September 2005 aims to demonstrate all that the ‘GDS – Premier Shoe Event’ has stood for over the past half century: a trade fair platform that uses its sectoral know-how and its experience to implement future visions. It will focus not only on new trends and key opinion leaders but it will also reflect the global shoe market.
