Messe Frankfurt India Trade Fairs India Pvt Ltd together with Gifts & Accessories, the Exhibition Division of Netlink Solutions (India) Ltd announced new dates for their leading consumer goods exhibitions, which was met with an overwhelming support from the industry.
The new dates allow industry stakeholders additional time to plan while offering safety, confidence and flexibility to both exhibitors and fair attendees. Moreover, it also secures maximum participation, while keeping in mind the period before the re-opening of schools which is a key theme for the launch of Paperworld India. The corporate gifting segment on the other hand is witnessing a renewed demand for health, safety or work-from-home related gifting products with the timing aligning with pre-festive sourcing for distributors and wholesalers. Interior Lifestyle India presented by Ambiente India’s homeware and lifestyle products will thus create perfect synergies with the two fairs.
With less than two months from the scheduled event, the new Omicron variant has posed a challenging business environment both in terms of safety and business prospects, both of which might compromise the standard of the event. “As organisers, we strongly believe the change in dates will create more favourable trade prospects for exhibitors, ensure additional time to plan with certainty and enhance business confidence among the fair attendees,” explained Mr Raj Manek, Managing Director Messe Frankfurt Trade Fairs India.
Mr Minesh Modi, Wholetime Director, Netlink Solutions (India) Ltd said: “We are certain that this brief rescheduling will allow us to come back stronger and offer the industry a platform that meets their business objectives. All eyes are set on the 2022 edition and we’re completely focused on ensuring a strong return with opportunities for business regeneration.”
Continuing their aim to provide a safe and conducive environment for trade, Messe Frankfurt India will organise exhibitions under the “MFISafeConnect” standards that are strictly aligned with government’s health and safety guidelines.
