ISPO Beijing 2015: Asia’s Strongest Sporting Goods Exhibition Posts New Record Numbers

ISPO BEIJING 2015 continues its success story. As many as 29,948 visitors came to Beijing from January 28 to 31, 2015. This year the show hosted over 430 exhibitors with more than 600 brands. Exhibitors praised the high quality of the visitors and the first-class side event programme – in particular the Trend Forum, the Asia Pacific Snow Conference (APSC) and the ISPO TEXTRENDS Forum.

Klaus Dittrich, Chairman of the Management of Messe München GmbH shares a positive review, “The four trade show days once again showed that the sporting goods industry continues to grow in China. This is also evident in the increasing number and quality of the exhibitors. In addition to numerous great Asian brands like Kailas, Mobi Garden and Toread, the list of exhibitors also included many international companies, such as Garmont, LOWA, Mammut and TECNICA. Craft, Dynastar, Gore, La Sportiva, Point65, Swix and Thule participated for the first to introduce their products on the Chinese market.” The community exhibits by countries including Austria, Korea, Czech Republic and Taiwan further reflected the international character of ISPO BEIJING.

This summer’s ISPO SHANGHAI is yet another attractive event by Messe München International for the growing Chinese market. The exhibition will be held from July 2 to 4, 2015 at the Shanghai New International Expo Center (SNIEC). As a multi-segment exhibition ISPO SHANGHAI focuses even more closely on Fitness, Water Sports and Sportstyle in addition to Outdoor and Action. So far, more than 300 brands have confirmed their participation. They include major manufacturers such as Camelbak, Fjäll Räven, Mammut and Toread.
