Why exhibit at International Hardware Fair Italy

THE ONLY FAIR FOR THE HARDWARE AND DIY SECTOR IN ITALY

The widely successful format that led International Hardware Fair Cologne - EISENWARENMESSE - to be the world's No. 1 trade fair in the industry is now in Italy too. The industry workers from all over Europe will have a Koelnmesse appointment every year: even years in Cologne, odd years in Bergamo.

AN INTERNATIONAL FAIR

International Hardware Fair Italy will address its naturally international vocation to foreign markets - in particular Europe and the Mediterranean area - in terms of visitors and exhibitors. The synergic alternation with EISENWARENMESSE will offer companies and visitors the opportunity to participate to a top-level event every year.

A COMPLETE PRODUCT RANGE

The event involves a wide range of different areas, to offer visitors a complete set of products. Tools, DIY, Fixing, Building, Safety, Coulor and Paintings, Electrical, Garden and Outdoor, will be the main product categories exhibited. A proposal that will catch the attention of a huge number of visitors from the most attractive distribution channels for exhibitors: traditional and professional hardware distribution, large-scale retail, building retailers, paint shops.

MATCHMAKING: QUALITY MEETINGS

A specific activity of invitations addressed to the main national and international distributors was also scheduled, thanks to the synergy with International Hardware Fair Cologne.
