New dates, new segments

The Tokyo International Flower Expo (Ifex) and the Tokyo International Garden & Exterior Expo (Gardex) will take place one week earlier than scheduled. The new dates are 11 to 13 November 2009. Several new product segments are to be added to the 15 existing ones this year. They will include outdoor living, garden equipment and Japanese gardens. The organisers expect around 1 000 exhibitors and 34 000 trade visitors to attend the event.
