Dusseldorf trade shows GDS and tag it! reported disappointing visitor numbers during their last edition held in July. With only 12,500 retailers attending the three-day event, the show organisers said they were not “satisfied” and that they would hold discussions with industry partners on the optimisation of the shows.
