IWA OutdoorClassics 2023: current exhibitor numbers
In its role as the world's leading trade fair, IWA OutdoorClassics is pleased to welcome many companies from all parts of the world every year. Currently, 834 exhibitors (as of 15.11.2022) from a total of 48 countries have pledged to participate in the IWA OutdoorClassics 2023. Just under 30 percent of these will be first-time exhibitors at the IWA OutdoorClassics. In addition to these new faces, visitors can also expect to see the number of returning exhibitors who were unable to attend the IWA OutdoorClassics in 2022, for example due to the pandemic. Manufacturers such as Leica, Merkel Jagd- und Sportwaffen GmbH and CG Haenel GmbH are among the loyal returning participants. “After a short absence, we are looking forward to the IWA OutdoorClassics next March,” says Olaf Sauer, Managing Director Merkel Sportwaffen GmbH and CG Haenel GmbH. “The pandemic has shown that we have a greater need than ever to engage with industry professionals and engage in collective industry-wide discussions. IWA offers the best opportunities in this sense.” Details of current registrations can be viewed online at any time at: https://www.iwa.info/en/ausstellerprodukte
New presentation areas for the Airsoft, Knives and Optics segments
Visitors to the upcoming IWA OutdoorClassics can look forward to new developments in a number of areas. Standing out among these are the new special exhibition areas created for the optics, airsoft and cutlery segments. These spaces offer visitors the opportunity to get to know the products on display even more deeply and to have an in-depth dialogue with the exhibitors. Each area focuses on the specifics of the respective target groups and takes the expertise of industry professionals to a new level. The OPTICS Testing Area is therefore distinguished by having a darkroom, the AIRSOFT Shooting Range with its own shooting stands and the BLADE demo area with features such as an attractive stage design.
