News this week: Reed Exhibitions’ in-cosmetics
Asia recently concluded at
the Bangkok International Trade and Exhibition Centre (BITEC). The three-day show ran from 4th
to 6th November 2014, and featured more than 400 exhibitors from 28
countries and regions.
Reed reported a 10%
growth in visitor attendance this year, which included close to 6,600
international visitors and brand representatives from the likes of Johnson
& Johnson, Unilever, Beiersdorf and L’Oréal. An increase in visitor numbers
from India and Australia were highlighted this year, as well as a 30% increase
of Japanese visitors. Reed hosted two conference sessions on topics covering regulations
in the West and in Asia.
Sarah Gibson, exhibition
director of in-cosmetics Asia, commented, “Thailand boasts 2,000 cosmetics
manufacturers and they import 90% of their ingredients. 2015 is a particularly
important year with the new ASEAN economic community set to open up new
opportunities for the personal care industry in the region, so it’s no surprise
that this year we hosted more ingredient suppliers than ever-before and the
best educational programme thus far. I am very proud and excited to report that
initial feedback is that this year’s exhibition was the best ever.”
