STATEMENT

“Düsseldorf enjoys an international reputation, is of existential importance as a business location and – thanks to its good infrastructure – is excellently accessible in the centre of Germany. With the Areal Böhler we also occupy one of the most beautiful industrial locations in Europe.

There was a very important exchange between trade fair management and participants during the March edition regarding the supply chain problem. A problem that is increasing rather than decreasing and has therefore prompted the Igedo Company to make a trend-setting decision, namely to determine already now that SHOES DÜSSELDORF as the leading industry event will be brought forward for the Autumn / Winter 2023 / 2024 season as follows:

Sunday – Tuesday
26 – 28 February 2023

For me, this is also part of a trade fair, to actively discuss tomorrow with the customers and to quickly discuss what is feasible and what is possible”.
