Why invest in the Marketplace?

In recent years the ECR Europe Forum & Marketplace has attracted well over 2,000 delegates from all over the world. The Forum is the biggest event in Europe for top managers in the retailing and FMCG industry. The accompanying Marketplace has grown steadily over the years to more than 5,500m². There is no other conference with such an impressive line-up of top executives, including CEOs and chairmen, of leading companies in our industry.

The Forum programme offers a wide variety of sessions covering different aspects of ECR (Efficient Consumer Response) and hot topics in the retailing industry. The Milan Conference in 2007 hosted over 200 speakers, showcasing their best examples of collaboration in our sector and their application of the latest advances in technology and collaborative thinking.
