This year rounded up an increase in the exhibitor count to 1,134 exhibitors from 37 nations, or a 5.8 percent increase over last year. Around 30,000 trade visitors from 80 countries (2011: 32,292) participated in the four days of the event that spanned February 10-13, 2012. What underlined as enthusiastic buyer turnout was that around one third of the total number of trade visitors came from outside Germany, with strongest contingents being from Austria, Great Britain, Italy, Spain and Switzerland. The highest increases in visitor numbers were seen in those from Scandinavian countries of Finland, Norway and Sweden, and for Israel, Japan and South Africa. Because of the economic situation, however, visitor numbers from Greece, Italy and Spain declined.
Business across segments was good, according to the organizers. Exhibitors reportedly responded with reaction of “Great customers and a great mood”, “great atmosphere” , “overall positive mood”.
The organizers are expecting many new exhibitors at INHORGENTA MUNICH in 2013 and have many existing exhibitors wanting to book larger booths.
