THE EDITION OF CERTAINTY
2022_10_03
WITH +73% OF FOREIGN VISITORS, LINEAPELLE 100 PUTS THE PANDEMIC BEHIND IT AND SENDS OUT IMPORTANT SIGNS OF POSITIVITY IN A MARKET PHASE DOMINATED BY PROBLEMS AND WORRIES.
LINEAPELLE reaffirms that it represents a solid certainty for the fashion, luxury and design industries in an economic context dominated by worrying critical issues.
The 100th edition of the exhibition, held at Fiera Milano Rho from 20 to 22 September 2022, drew unanimous comments from its 1,134 exhibitors, characterised by concrete and reassuring satisfaction, and opened its doors to visitors from 109 countries.
An attendance volume 32% higher than that of last February's edition and which demonstrates, by virtue of the +73% increase in arrivals from abroad (added to the +10% from Italy) and subject to some unavoidable absences (Chinese buyers, for example), how LINEAPELLE has put the pandemic behind it. In particular, there was strong growth in entries from the United States, India, Mexico, Turkey, and all the main European markets, from France to the United Kingdom and from Portugal to Spain. Very interesting was the generalised finding of a significant lowering in the average age of visitors: younger, more motivated, and, above all, competent buyers and operators. An important signal for the future of LINEAPELLE and the entire supply chain.
