Nordstil

Nordstil is the ordering fair for gift, home and lifestyle retail in northern Germany, run by Messe Frankfurt at the Hamburg exhibition grounds twice a year. The January show is the larger one: last winter it filled ten hall levels with 800 exhibitors and drew 9,039 visitors. Almost all of them came from Germany, mainly owners and buyers of independent shops, concept stores, stationers, garden centers and delicatessens, with smaller groups from the Netherlands and Scandinavia. The July show is a compact fair in the A halls aimed at autumn, winter and Christmas orders.
