International Hardware Fair 2014 Registrations Pour In
World's largest tool and hardware show, set for March 9 to 12, 2014 in Cologne, Germany, is already 80 percent sold out.
EISENWARENMESSE – With eight months to go, registrations for The International Hardware Fair Cologne 2014 are off to a running start. Set for March 9 to 12, 2014 in Cologne, Germany, 80 percent of the exhibition surface has already been sold.
Once again, early registrations show a high level of international interest — in 2012, 85 percent of exhibitors came from outside of Germany. The 2012 show had 2,663 exhibitors from 50 countries in 1,533,857 square feet of exhibits. The show drew 53,500 professional visitors from 124 countries.
Tools Rule
In 2014 the biggest exhibition zone will once again be the tools area. Trade visitors can look forward to a worldwide unique spectrum of exhibited products and services. In 2012 over 1,500 companies presented hand and power tools and accessories in Halls 1 to 3, 4.1, 10.1 and 10.2.
Nevertheless, the EISENWARENMESSE – International Hardware Fair Cologne also boasts an impressive line-up in the other three segments:
- Industrial Supply
- Fasteners, Fixings and Fittings
- Home Improvement
These core categories are among the reasons why the EISENWARENMESSE – International Hardware Fair Cologne has been the world’s leading fair for the hardware industry for over 50 years and the traditional meeting place for manufacturers, buyers, distributors, retailers and decision-makers of the industry.
Meet the New Boss
On June 1st, 2013, Matthias Becker (40) took over management responsibility for the show. Becker has worked for Koelnmesse since 2000, most recently as Project Manager for the spoga horse, the h+h (Handcraft + Hobby) and the Cologne Marathon Expo.
The EISENWARENMESSE – International Hardware Fair Cologne will be held in Halls 1 to 5 and 10 of the Koelnmesse and will be open daily from 9 am to 6 pm from March 9 to 12, 2014. Further information is available at www.eisenwarenmesse.com.
