The 106th GDS – International Event for Shoes & Accessories rings in the order season for Spring/Summer 2009 with a slight six percent rise in exhibitors.

Approximately 820 exhibitors from 32 countries will present 1,950 collections on 103,000 m² of exhibition space from 12 to 14 September (in comparison with the September 2007 event).

Also featured for the first time will be brands such as Fossil and Fredsbruder from Germany, Dolfie and Farrutx from Spain, DC Co from Italy and Simple and TOMS Shoes from the USA.

After Germany (plus 9%), Italy (plus 18%), Spain (on par with 2007), the Netherlands (plus 3%), Portugal (plus 30%) and the United Kingdom (minus 9%) are the most important countries of origin.

Together with GLOBAL SHOES, which will be treated separately this season for the first time, there will be 1,269 exhibitors from 40 countries showing on exhibition space measuring 128,000 m². GLOBAL SHOES – the leading trade show for sourcing sharpens its profile.

For the first time now this, the No 1. event for OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) and volume suppliers, will be held from 11 to 13 September 2008 and hence one day out of sync with the shoe fair GDS.

In total approx. 449 exhibitors from 18 countries will occupy 25,000 m² in Halls 8a and 8b showcasing a wide panoply of women's, men's, children's shoes and sports shoes not forgetting casual and wellness styles.
