From August 31 to September 02, 2024, Messe Offenbach will open its doors for the 160th edition of ILM, showcasing the spring/summer 2025 collections of around 250 brands including leather goods, bags, luggage, and accessories.

ILM's new campaign has as the message “Time Is Now!”, to call on the entire industry to proactively embrace the current zeitgeist and capitalize on the opportunities that present themselves. This message is a call to action and a reminder that change, innovation, and collaboration are essential, especially in these challenging times. “Structural change in the retail sector is a fact, which means that brand strategies and product ranges need to be fundamentally rethought and reorganized,” said Arnd Hinrich Kappe, managing director of Messe Offenbach. Now is the right time to reinterpret one's brand value and to view retail not only as a sales area but also as a place for communities and experiences.

The trade fair invites its community to shape the future of the industry together while preserving the values that have characterized ILM for decades: Reliability, quality awareness, and a strong community. The event includes practice-orientated presentations, discussion panels, and trend forecasts with renowned industry experts. The focus will be on visions, solutions, and the common path into the future. The after-work parties offer the perfect opportunity to round off the trade fair days together and to network.
