Cologne, Germany serves as the host for this annual trade fair, which is organized by the Kölnmesse. Exhibitor hours have been set from 8:00 am until 7:00 pm, which is one hour earlier and one hour later than the hours for visitors. H + H COLOGNE lasts for three days usually around March, which is the perfect opportunity to add more buyers to your list and pad the upcoming quarter with direct orders. The trade fair serves as a major marketplace for manufacturers of materials and suppliers alike.

Handicrafts and hobby sectors are only on the rise as the DIY movement has made a comeback in modern society, so H + H COLOGNE only experiences a bigger growth spurt. More visitors mean more opportunities to sell around the world with easy access to local markets in Germany and members of the European Union like Italy and France.
