Asia-Pacific Sourcing will be held for the third time in Cologne from 1 - 3 March 2009. According to Koelnmesse, around 600 exhibitors from East Asia will be presenting their products from the Asia-Pacific region in Hall 10. They will include the categories of tools, locks and fittings, DIY, hardware sundries, fasteners and fixings, garden furniture and tools, grilling and camping equipment, and white goods as well. All the big players from the retail sectors represented there are expected to attend - from the volume sales business above all. Online registration in advance entitles visitors to free entrance tickets. The Internationale Aktionswarenmesse (a promotional goods fair) will be held in Halls 2 and 3 from 3 - 5 March, which is almost the same time.
