Silmo Istanbul in December

The first edition of the Silmo Istanbul trade show will be held December 11–14, 2014.

In 2013, the first edition of Istanbul Optik Fuari was a success: 10,000 m2 of exhibition, 92 exhibitors, 400 represented brands and 12,850 visitors.

Given this success, Silmo organizers, in partnership with the 24 Saat Ajans agency and Comexposium, hope to be the “flagship Eurasian trade fair, ideally located in Istanbul.”

With annual growth of almost 10%, the optics and eyewear market in Turkey is exhibiting a dynamism and potential that promises fantastic development opportunities for companies within the sector.

Benefiting from the experience of the Silmo brand, this new trade fair will extend from the countries bordering Turkey in the Near and Middle East as far as East Africa.
