European packaging fairs results announced
Published July 11th, 2006
easyFairs, the European organiser of regional trade fairs, attracted 2,054 exhibitors (2004-05: 711) and 32,808 (2004-05: 1,000) visitors to its 19 packaging shows in seven European countries in the autumn 2005 and spring 2006 seasons. easyFairs has also announced that the portfolio will be further expanded to 25 shows in 2006-07, including the company’s first show in Switzerland, which will take place in Luzern in November 2006. ‘Exhibitors and visitors alike are endorsing the easyFairs concept of regular annual trade shows at the heart of Europe’s major packaging markets,’ said easyFairs Chief Operating Officer, Jean-Francois Quentin.
‘Packaging is a fast-changing business and manufacturers of consumer packaged goods are always on the look out for solutions that will cut costs or add to brand value.
I am confident that the number of visitors and exhibitors will increase in the coming years as our shows gain recognition and value across Europe.’ The 2005-06 results already make easyFairs the largest pan-European organiser of regional trade fairs for the packaging sector.
easyFairs’ strict admissions and reporting policy mean that the visitor numbers refer only to unique visits by professional and trade visitors.
easyFairs has grown from just three packaging trade shows in three countries, so the growth has been exponential.
Quentin attributes this success to easyFairs’ identification of an unmet need brought about by changing market trends and increased competition.
