Company Profile
A trade-fair organiser carries no shop box. The four-fair family described in the earlier record - CPD, HMD, Body Look and Global Fashion, with their 2007-2008 exhibitor counts - no longer runs in that form: CPD itself was organised from 1982 to 2012. That full record is kept on the history page; current dates are on Igedo's own site, linked above.
The filing's structure is a family of four fairs under one roof, and that four-part structure is the profile. CPD Dusseldorf covers womenswear. HMD Dusseldorf covers menswear. Body Look is the trade fair for body, beach and leg wear. Global Fashion is the sourcing trade fair, where production itself is the exhibit. Between them, the four events span the full order-writing season: finished collections for women and men, the bodywear categories, and the commission manufacturing that stands behind private labels. The trade-fair routes - the trade fair directory, trade fairs in Germany, the Germany fashion industry and Germany customs offices - are all carried on this page.

The earlier record for this company - its history, past brand line-ups, figures and photographs from the periods described - is kept on a separate page for historical reference.
