From 13 to 16 January 2007, DOMOTEX HANNOVER will reassert its reputation as the world's leading trade show for carpets and floor coverings. No other event has so much to offer.

Exhibitors from some 60 countries will be heading to Hannover, Germany, to present their latest goods and services, and visiting specialists will find this to be a prime opportunity to tune into tomorrow's market trends.

The entire branch relies on DOMOTEX HANNOVER as an accurate business barometer. The show's rich array of exhibits will be augmented by an impressive program of supporting events.

“As we approach next January's show, we have every reason for optimism,” comments Stephan Ph. Kühne, the Deutsche Messe AG Board Member responsible for DOMOTEX HANNOVER. “Once again there has been a huge demand for stand space. Around 1,250 exhibitors are expected to take part.

The net rented display space is estimated at 90,500 square meters, while attendance is forecast at around 45,000 trade visitors. Exhibitors and visitors value DOMOTEX HANNOVER as an opportunity to establish business contacts”, notes Kühne.

“The 2006 show attracted more senior decision-makers than ever before. Indeed, a survey revealed that one visitor in two occupied a senior management position in his or her company. Hence DOMOTEX offers considerable scope for effective networking between industry, wholesalers/retailers and the skilled trades.”

In terms of international appeal, DOMOTEX HANNOVER ranks as one of the world's top runners, and this is a key reason for its success: Three quarters of the exhibitors come from outside Germany.
