Due to be held in Paris from 3 to 8 September 2004, the next Tradexpo, a trade show that is held three times a year, will be bigger than last year’s event. The organisers, Agor, have increased the exhibition space from 49 000 m² to 55 000 m² this time and claim that 86 per cent has already been reserved. More than 400 exhibitors have registered for the volume goods show, which attracted 370 companies in September 2003. There is a special showcase called “Home and Leisure” (“Maison Loisirs”) devoted to DIY, creative leisure activities and gardening. A special spotlight will be on the ranges for Halloween and Christmas.
