BRIGHT Skateboarding Tradeshow

 
Bright Interview

Summer Bright 2006
The former Police Headquarters offered for the first time about 3000 sqm of exhibiting space spread over three floors.
The third Bright Tradeshow brought an increase of 30% of Exhibitors with almost 200 brands covering the whole Skatboarding territory, which awarded the Tradeshow with an increase in visitors as well. Those nearly 1500 retailer from Germany and other foreign European countries, can count themselves as the essence of the German and European Skate & Streetwear Commerce.

Particulary positive to evaluate is the aknowledgment from the foreign european countries. With the most amount of visitors coming from Switzerland, the Tradeshow had also visitors coming from Belgium, Poland, Italy, Holland, Austria, France, Hungary, England and China.

The growing share of Brands exhibiting on the Bright who get close to the Skateboard Streetwear like Carrhartt, Volcom, Stüssy oder Fenchurch, reflect the european market situation in the retail industry. Skateboard inspired Streetwear is on his best way to redefine the commerce once again.

The crativity, especially from the small brands like Wemoto, in designing and presenting the rooms were an eye catch for the guests during theTradeshow. In the winter there will be a best booth contest, the winner will get a tollfree stand, this garantees an exciting winter exhibition for all the people involved.
