The International Canoe Trade Show

The international canoe industry has had a must event in Nürnberg since 2005: the International Canoe Trade Show. The exhibition for canoeing now enters its fifth round, the third time in succession in Nürnberg. International exhibitors show everything for kayaking and canoeing in hall 4A of NürnbergMesse from 13-15 September 2007: kayaks, canoes, folding canoes, trekking canoes, inflatable canoes, rental canoes, paddles, clothing and accessories. The International Canoe Trade Show is presented in a new hall in 2007.

Not just in "another" hall, but in a truly new hall, which was only completed in January and has a delightful light and bright design. All exhibitors can now exhibit on one level with distinctly more space, as hall 4A offers over 7, 000 square metres of display area.

The International Canoe Trade Show offers both high-end sports equipment and accessories for professionals and beginners' canoes, folding canoes and trekking canoes and the appropriate equipment. The organizer has noticed that "a new trend is emerging for 'canoes for all'". Whereas the canoe specialists still buy in the relevant canoe shop, more and more outdoor retailers and also water sports shops are entering the business of beginners' canoes – "with considerable growth rates".

"The International Canoe Trade Show is also the ideal ordering and information platform for these traders, " emphasizes Fürsattel. First because the manufacturers have already adjusted to them and have suitable offers and new products available at the show, second because the right choice of products – to match the respective outdoor shop – and clear definition of the range are elementary preconditions for success. "The International Canoe Trade Show offers the best opportunity for obtaining accurate information. Here you can speak to experts and handle the canoes and paddles yourself before deciding."

The organizer regards the Nürnberg location as ideal for all visitor target groups: "The exhibitors are extremely satisfied here and the location has optimum accessibility – especially in view of the great interest in canoeing in Eastern Europe, which guarantees us more exhibitors and visitors." There are also several new exhibitors from the USA in 2007.
