Visitors from all over the world set course for Aalborg

This October, Aalborg Congress & Culture Center (AKKC) welcomes over 12,000 visitors from around the world. Fishermen, skippers, engineers, naval architects, among many others, make the pilgrimage to the Paris of the North to take part in DanFish International, one of the world’s most important fishing fairs.

Held every alternate year, DanFish will open its doors for the 28th time in AKKC with a total oorspace of 24,000 square meters and in an adjacent mobile hall of 4,000 square meters, which, by tradition, is set up in Kildeparken, to make sure there is room for the many exhibitors from home and abroad. e important trade fair attracts visitors from all over the world, including Canada, India, Japan, the USA, France, Norway, and many more countries.

DanFish International provides a perfect ground for concluding a large number of contracts after the fair, but there are also more visitors who come to conclude agreements at the fair itself, where, experience shows, deals of a million range are made.

Back on track

DanFish International is one of the world’s largest trade fairs for shing equipment, and the trade fair is more relevant than ever, after a few years when trade fair activities throughout the world were postponed or cancelled due to the pandemic. In 2021, the number of visitors to DanFish was also somewhat lower than usual, as countries such as Japan, China, Australia, the USA, and New Zealand were prevented from traveling due to the corona restrictions. Fortunately, Covid has nally released its grip on the industry, so that many exhibitors and visitors can resume face-to-face contacts across national borders.

A happy reunion

Several of the overseas exhibitors who participated in the fair in

2019 were unfortunately forced to stay at home in 2021, due to Covid. Now, fortunately, the representatives of international companies are once again ready to participate in DanFish International, which is a highly welcome development for Else Herfort, AKKC’s Head of Sales & Expos. We sense both among exhibitors and visitors a great interest to participate in the

DanFish show in October without worrying about corona restrictions. Everyone looks forward to coming to the fair, experiencing the atmosphere, and seeing the many products, she says.
