IPM 2008

Once again, some 60,000 visitors at the International Plant Fair in Essen:

The visitors came from 93 countries to the most important specialist trade fair in the Green Sector, which has once again emphasised its status as the world’s leading exhibition.
With even more exhibitors from an increasing number of nations, the IPM offered the specialist visitors a complete market overview during a four-day period in matters relating to plants, technology, the flower trade and sales promotion. 1423 exhibitors from 46 countries were part of the events at the IPM 2008. The visitors’ main aims were information and news, general market orientation, establishment and maintenance of business contacts and visiting the supporting programme, in addition to further training and suggestions for their own activities. One third of the visitors came from abroad. The visitors expressed a high level of satisfaction with what the IPM had to offer.
Make a note of the date in advance: the next IPM in Essen will be taking place between 29th January and 1st February 2009.

PLMA 2008

27th and 28th May 2008

We are looking forward to your visit to our stand in the non-food area

There has never been such a demand for new products, contacts and ideas as there is today. The market share of the private labels has never been as large as it is at present. The future even promises an increase in private labels, since individual trade chains are expanding internationally and are stepping up marketing of their companies and products. The PLMA is taking up these challenges. The PLMA specialist trade fair “World of Private Label” 2008 will present almost 3000 exhibition stands including 30 national and regional pavilions. Products such as fresh, refrigerated and frozen goods, drinks and preserved foods in addition to non-food categories such as cosmetics, health and beauty articles plus household and kitchen products, car care, garden and household goods and DIY articles will be on display.
The PLMA international specialist trade fair "World of Private Label" 2008 attracts thousands of purchasers, who represent the sector of supermarkets, hypermarkets, discounters, department stores, drugstores, DIY central markets and large retailers in addition to importers and exporters. This specialist trade fair is unique in its kind. A visit to the PLMA “World of Private Label” is a simple affair. The specialist trade fair is held in the RAI Exhibition Centre in Amsterdam, only 15 minutes away from Schiphol airport.
