This week I will attend this event which runs once every 3 or 4 years.
This will be my third visit to Cologne, the last time was 3 years ago to the same show. That trip was extremely short, I think about 2 days. I flew Ryanair to Frankfurt, but didnt realise it was Frankfurt Hahn, which was around 2 hours of a coach ride to the centre of Frankfurt. I now check everytime I fly which airport am arriving to, especially on the cheaper airlines.
The time before that , I was attending some trade show in Frankfurt, which was of more a jolly, as I believe we only looked through the door of the exhibition, said Na, and got the train to Cologne to have a look round. This was when I got the wrong train back to Frankfurt and had extra to pay, I also learnt to check I was riding the right train with the right ticket, as the conductor got my passport and wouldnt give it back until I had paid up !!!! What a fight !!!
Well, enough of the reminising. This time am travelling for work. Looking forward to seeing some embroidery machines, screen printing machines, labelling machines and a general look at the new technology in the manufacturing industry.
As our uniform business continues to grow, it will be important to be aware of the changes for producing our nurses uniforms, and more the branding for our customers, by way of logos to their uniforms. I want to be ahead and to do so it is important to attend these shows.
So, next week my uniform blog will be loads about what I found in Cologne. Lets hope the exhibtion is good too :-)




Thanks for this post
