Tendence Autumn and Winter -

Decorate Life Exhibitor Statements

"Tendence is one of the most important international consumer-goods fairs for the autumn-winter and Christmas business and provides great support for our rapidly expanding clientele throughout the world.
Exhibiting at Tendence has always been very successful for Seltmann, especially last year when we were able to electrify both trade and private visitors with a cooking show featuring popular stars Alfons Schuhbeck and Elmar Wepper."
Werner Weiherer, General Manager, Seltmann Weiden

"The concept of the new Decorate Life combined show offers the various customer target groups products for all seasons and thus covers all patterns of consumption. The July dates also give us sufficient time to take account of the spring business for major customers. The hall arrangements have obviously been made with the different customers in mind – and one of the focal points is floral lifestyle in Hall 8."
Nicola Gardy-Hoffmann, President, artfleur Hoffmann GmbH

"For us, Ambiente and Tendence/Decorate Life are the most important platforms in terms of communications with retail partners. No other fair offers more opportunities to present our broad product spectrum to existing and potential customers. The focus here is on innovative new products and getting new marketing and POS concepts across to the trade."
Peter Leinberger, Sales Manager Reisenthel Accessoires

"alfi is one of the world's leading suppliers in the 'fresh.cold.hot' field. We need potent platforms on which we can present our innovations and trade activities to an audience of experts. In this connection, the Decorate Life combined show is one of the most important events in our trade-fair calendar. The unique concept of this event gives us the chance to hold important discussions and to make new contacts.
At Tendence 2008, we want to investigate the trend subject of coffee and, of course, our new 'alfino' coffee machine' with all senses under the motto 'Automatic Machine meets Barista’".
Bernhard Mittelmann, General Management, alfi GmbH

"Visiting Tendence is highly worthwhile because buyers can find the few leading costume-jewellery manufacturers who offer exactly what successful specialist retailers need to stand out from their competitors, i.e., innovative design that, as in the case of Coeur De Lion, is coupled with top craftsmanship, high-grade materials and faultless service. We exhibit at Tendence because we encounter numerous specialist dealers there who are looking for a brand such as Coeur De Lion."
Nils Eckrodt, General Manager, Coeur De Lion Schmuckdesign GmbH

"The zeitgeist pervades the atmosphere at Tendence. Besides a large range of successful jewellery collections, jewellery retailers can also discover young companies taking their initial steps in the market because many talents and newcomers present their collections to a large audience at Tendence for the first time. Messe Frankfurt is showing the way forward with the central location of the 'Carat' section in Halls 5.0 and 6.0 and giving jewellery buyers a wonderful setting at the most important jewellery fair in the second half of the year."
Bernd Wolf, proprietor, Bernd Wolf Schmuckdesign

"For the first time in its history, premium brand BRETZ will be celebrating the premiere of its brand new BRETZ ART COUTURE 2009 range at the new Tendence in Frankfurt. The Decorate Life combined fair provides the perfect platform to stage BRETZ BROTHERS avant-garde design icons, a platform suited to their status. We anticipate making strong placement sales to our industry’s key international players and receiving standing ovations from our fans."
Dr. Hartmut Bretz, Managing Director, Bretz Wohnträume GmbH

"KAHLA Porzellan produces a continuous series of new ideas and products – and, to launch them, we need broad communication platforms. In this connection, Tendence continues to offer the best prerequisites that cannot be matched either by many regional or by international order fairs. We are confident that the new Decorate Life concept, which brings together several events at the same time and place, will make Tendence even more attractive. And, of course, this is likely to be reflected in the number of visitors attending."
Jutta Burkhart, Head of Marketing, Design & PR, KAHLA/Thüringen Porzellan GmbH

"Our aim is to offer a good fair, create a great fair stand and be there with a committed team. We aim to go about the tasks ahead of us with enthusiasm, enjoyment and passion. We believe our commitment will attract customers, who work in a professional way!
We are convinced that the new Decorate Life combined fair will be stimulating and exciting for everyone - exhibitors and visitors alike. Frankfurt has always provided excellent foundations for a traditional, autumn consumer-goods fair and we would like it to stay that way!"
Jutta Rothe, Managing Director, Raumgestalt

"For jewellery exhibitors, too, Tendence Autumn + Winter 2008 is the biggest and most important fair in the second half of the year. Our customers come to this fair not only to place orders but also to discover the latest trends and to experience a special atmosphere, which is easier at Tendence than at a pure trade fair."
Marion Stolp, General Manager, Kreuchauff Design

"By holding the fairs at the same time, we anticipate a concentration of customers and more visitors. A presentation of our concepts can be seen in the Collectione area, in Hall 8. Here, buyers will find everything revolving around flowers and plants in a single exhibition hall."
Axel Schröder, Marketing Manager Scheurich Keramik

"Lambert is an internationally orientated company, so for us the Tendence fair is the perfect platform, from which to present our extensive collection and host of new products to international and Germany-based customers and every year we find new customers," said Bernd D. Ehrengart, owner of Lambert GmbH, furniture suppliers. "Decorate Life has the potential to establish itself as a top Living & Lifestyle fair, an event which brings trade visitors together in a central location. As a result, the fair has the potential to become Germany’s premier presentation platform."
Bernd D. Ehrengart, owner of Lambert GmbH, furniture suppliers

"We at Krebs Glas Lauscha, manufacturers of glass, Christmas tree ornaments, take a positive view of the new combined fair. We will be exhibiting at the new Tendence in July, with the aim of appealing at the summer fair too, to a broader target group. In the past, we have successfully served interior design and furnishing companies, small, specialist stores, gift shops and boutiques. Now we are hoping to extend our customer base further to garden and furniture centres, florists, building and DIY markets through the merging of the fair with Outdoor Living and Collectione."
Krebs Glas Lauscha GmbH

"For many years, Tendence Lifestyle and Ambiente in Frankfurt have been two of the most important fairs for the retail trade. At these events, we can make and nurture customer contacts in a design-orientated, professional setting. It goes without saying that we will be presenting our new range of gifts for men in good time for the 2008 Christmas trading season."
Liudger Böll, Creative Director, TROIKA domovari GmbH

"For the following two reasons the combination of fairs is very attractive for us. For one thing the early date, which makes it possible for us to present the novelties of the 2009 season in time. For another thing we see the big international interest as very positive."
Roland Stoiber, Marketing & Export Manager of Münchener Boulevard Möbel GmbH
