Hardware Retailing The Industry's Source for Insights and Information
It’s time to register for the 39th annual International Hardware Fair in Cologne, Germany.
The show is considered one of the leading international events in the home improvement industry. In fact, last year, more than 50,000 attendees from 132 countries came to the show, and 2,665 exhibitors filled six different halls at the Koelnmesse convention center.
Early registration already suggests the show will be just a big as its predecessors with nearly 80 percent of the exhibition space already sold.
In addition to an extensive tool showcase, attendees can also browse products and services in Industrial Supply, Fasteners and Fixings and Fittings and Home.
Attendance at the show offers American retailers unique industry insights because product trends traditionally hit Europe several years before coming to the States.
Make sure to mark your calendars for March 9-12, 2014, for the International Hardware Fair and check out the full story in the November issue of Hardware Retailing magazine.
