OFFPRICE Show a Big Hit in its New Home at The Sands!

Delegates Revel in New Venue, Engage in healthy order-writing despite tighter budgets

With 128 more booths than last year’s show, and 46 new exhibitors, the recent August OFFPRICE Show proved once again to be a vibrant marketplace of great deals for retailers in a struggling economy. But perhaps the greatest feature for the 10,000+ was the show’s new home in the grand stage of The Sands Expo & Convention Center.

“High ceilings, fabulous lights, all the vendors were happy, and the buyers couldn’t be happier!” said OFFPRICE Executive Vice President David Lapidos. “It was very gratifying to receive feedback from EVERYONE on how much they love our new home. Many of the buyers are now calling us ‘The Promotional MAGIC!’”

This show’s buying delegation, more than ever, was focused on best prices, and OFFPRICE vendors delivered en masse as evidenced by active order-writing with buyers.

“I had the greatest first day ever,” said Andy Shamsi, whose company, Cosmo Trading in New York, has been exhibiting for 10 years. “And my second day was even better.”

While Shamsi did most of his order-writing with existing customers, many conducted business with new buyers. “I had a large retailer from Canada take a majority of stock from one of our brands,” said Peter Gardner of Mizrahi-Gardner in LA. “And on the last day, I wrote a very nice order with a buyer from Guam.”

International interest in OFFPRICE continues to flourish, with over 400 buyers in attendance, including chains from Canada, Mexico and as far away as New Zealand – all buying product. Domestically, the largest off price and discount retailers were well represented at the show, but it is the smaller independent operators that constitute the most growth in the OFFPRICE buyer community.

“I gained some new vendors that I am very pleased with at this show, and I’m already registered for (A TASTE OF) OFFPRICE in LA (in October) to seek out more deals on trendy goods for my urban boutique,” asserted Rosa Jones of Diamond Girl in Homestead, Florida.

“It was a fun experience, as well as a great resource for my business,” new buyer Jerry Leehan of N&S Sports Memorabilia in Plainfield, MA reviewed. “I met some great connections and purchased some great apparel. I will be attending next year for sure.”

“We enjoy enormous support from the national chains,” claims Lapidos, “But we also help the little guys grow their businesses. They can’t compete with the Wal-Marts on price, but (through OFFPRICE) they can put in better -recognized merchandise at a lower price. And that’s what buyers need to fight the big boxes.”

Speaking of big boxes, over 400 “Founders Club” members representing the largest chains came open to buy at the August OFFPRICE. The spacious accommodations and greater ease of access to the vendors were conducive to helping them fill immediate needs, and they responded with active order-writing.

“The venue was great,” reported Daniel Melendez, Owner of Portland Merchandise in New York. “There were wider aisles, more room for our buyers to meet, and we felt very comfortable. Our buyers were quite satisfied. They weren’t looking for anything in particular, but found great values.”

“The cost of manufacturing overseas is resulting in tighter inventories,” commented Lapidos. “It’s rewarding to know that the big guys can count on us as a great alternative for their buying needs.”

The next OFFPRICE event – A TASTE OF OFFPRICE – will be held October 4, 5 & 6 at the California Market Center during LA Majors Market.

“Last year’s Labelexpo Europe won the AEO’s ‘Marketing Campaign of the Year’ award,” comments Wim Maes, CEO of Punch Graphix. “The judges cited the campaign as innovative, flexible and enticing - taking the subject matter and making it interesting and fully engaging with the audience. This kind of creativity is one of the reasons why we have partnered with Labelexpo. Combined with their solid understanding of the label market, long-term commitment and global presence, Labelexpo will be a valuable marketing partner for us - today and for the years ahead.”

“We are delighted to have the opportunity to work closely with such a strong force in the digital printing industry,” says Roger Pellow, Labelexpo Managing Director. “With Xeikon’s focus and dedication to the labeling industry – combined with the global reach of Labelexpo – we will be able to bring knowledge and innovative solutions to a wider audience. The partnership stimulates a continued support and development for this exciting industry.”

Printing solutions built for labeling

Xeikon is one of the pioneers of digital color printing technology for the professional printing market. Its commitment to the label industry began in 1996 when the company launched the world’s first digital color press dedicated to label printing. Since then, Xeikon has continued to lead the label market with a continuous stream of innovative solutions dedicated to the needs of this rapidly growing market. Its award- winning Xeikon 3300, released in 2008, represented a quantum leap forward in image quality, speed and reliability. This was followed in 2010 with the release of the Xeikon 3500 which delivers productivity gains almost twice those of its closest competitors.

During its process of continuous innovation, Xeikon evolved from developing best-of-breed digital printers to delivering total label printing solutions. These innovations include the introduction of the world's first dedicated toner for the label and packaging market. This toner is in line with the FDA regulations for the use in direct and indirect food contact applications and has a wider color gamut and vastly improved light fastness. Recognizing that finishing is an integral part of the printing process, Xeikon also offers a fully integrated D-coat finishing line with all its printers. To offer a full package solution, the company cooperates with leading substrate suppliers to guarantee their products work seamlessly together.

World’s leading events for label printing industry

The Labelexpo Global Series, like Xeikon, has a strong commitment to the worldwide label industry. The exhibitions and summits organized by Labelexpo are the world's leading events for the label printing industry. The exhibitions take place in Chicago (USA), Brussels (Europe), Shanghai (China) and Delhi (India) and provide a platform for manufacturers of printing machinery and materials to showcase their products and technologies. The educational aspect of the Labelexpo Series is represented by Label Summits, which take place in Mexico City, São Paulo, Barcelona and Tokyo.

Following the success of the event last year, it was decided to hold this summit again following the increase in expectations from the package printing and label industry for this technology. The summit this year had a much stronger focus on the direction that digital solutions and applications will take in the future. With new generations of fully-integrated digital presses and high added-value conventional/digital in-line combination presses evolving, as well as an explosion in inkjet technology, the interest regarding these latest advances in the label and packaging sectors is growing considerably. The summit reviewed the latest developments and applications in integrated, in-line and stand alone toner and UV-curable inkjet presses for self-adhesive, shrink sleeve and heat transfer labels, flexible packaging, cartons, pouches and tubes.

The conference played host to industry experts speaking, putting forward case studies and sitting on panels to explore new technologies and applications for digital printing of labels, tickets/tags and flexible packaging.. Brand owners also talked about their experience of digitally printed labels and packs and their expectations for the future developments.

Conference highlights included:

• Digital web-fed printing – state-of-the-art: Michael Fairley summarized the best tips and analysis for digital technologies, solutions and markets and applications. Along with Bob Leahey of Info Trends Inc. Michael gave the audience information and solutions on how to implement the new technologies available  
• Advances in digital print technologies and solutions: This session looked at performance – resolution, web widths, colours, speed, environmental issues; combining materials, inks and technology for optimum inkjet performance; and developing new markets and applications.
• Consumables that influence quality and performance: Kenneth D. Stack,EFI / Jetrion Industrial Inkjet Systems, Christian Menegon, HP Indigo, Lode Deprez, Xeikon and Adrian Lockwood looked at the nature and performance of digital inks, toners and drying/curing systems and the use of coatings and varnishes taking the environment into consideration.
• Benefitting the brand owner: The session used a case study to demonstrate using digital technology to enhance a brand with the speakers Christian Menegon, HP Indigo and Hans Poortinga, Heineken.

Overall feedback from delegates indicated that the event proved to be the best place to network and to learn about digital label trends from experts in the industry. The summit gave a perfect overview about the digital topics for the future giving label and packaging printers the knowledge to choose correctly on where to invest and how to invest for their companies.

Roger Pellow, Labelexpo Managing Director, said: “This second edition of the Digital Label Summit has again been a success that digital really is an important part of the future of the industry. The technologies have excelled over the last year with a number of UV inkjet presses being launched and installed since the last Digital Label Summit in 2009. it is clear that the industry’s interest and demand for this technology will continue to grow at a very fast rate. We are pleased to see established businesses embracing these new technologies and seeing printers and brand owners alike expressing their interest in the opportunities and advantages that printing labels and packaging digitally can offer.”

Quotes from exhibitors at Label Summit Latin America 2010:

Keith Montgomery, A B Graphic International Ltd said: “Due to the speed at which digital technology is advancing, it is vital that we keep in touch with the latest developments, and the recent Digital Label Summit in Barcelona was a great opportunity to meet up with both equipment and consumable manufactures, as well as customers to determine what direction the market is taking, and what is required by the end users.  A B Graphic International as a leading supplier of digital finishing equipment welcome events such as this, and find them a valuable source of information.”

Peter Dhondt, Cerm – Business Automation Solutions said: “Business Automation was definitely a hot topic during this year’s Digital Label Summit. It proves that Business Automation becomes an important aspect as printing digitally impacts favorably on the back office. A digital workflow in administration offers a lot of perspectives. The customer testimonials on stage have clearly an added value in this. Many attendees congratulated us with these sessions, although it were our customers telling about us, which is always the best publicity. This explains why we obtained an interesting number of leads out of this specific event.”

Dr Kenneth Stack, EFI Jetrion said: "The Digital Label Summit in Barcelona was an extremely successful event for EFI. Our Jetrion series of UV inkjet label presses received a great deal of interest from visitors. We see more and more converters looking at digital technology as a way to diversify their businesses and to cater to market trends of short runs and variable data label printing. As an industry leader we were excited to be part of this year’s educational user panels and look forward to being part of next year’s Label Summit Latin America in Sao Paolo.”

Jan De Roeck, EskoArtwork said: "The Digital Label Summit proves again to be a formula that works for industry vendors as well as production companies: the dedicated attention to the actual challenges known in the industry together with a great number of experts makes this to a unique and valuable event. EskoArtwork believes the industry has realized that "zooming out" from printing or just the digital press to the entire and integrated digital production chain is required in order to be successful."

The American Academy of Anti-Aging, (A4M) a not for profit organisation committed to the education of physicians to detect, prevent, and treat age-related diseases, has now launched a series of anti-aging qualifications in the Middle East. These courses will train and formally qualify physicians to delay the effects of aging.

Exam sessions (as part of the overall qualifications) are available to take during the 3^rd Dubai Congress on Anti-Aging and Aesthetic Medicine (DCAAAM), the only A4M event in the Middle East, which takes place at the Dubai World Trade Centre, from October 26 – 27 2010,  with pre conference workshops held on October 25.

DCAAAM is the largest gathering of Middle Eastern physicians and international anti-aging suppliers. It actively supports and encourages the continuing education of physicians through its three-day scientific program, in addition to the extensive training qualifications.

Due to anti-aging medicine being a relatively new medical field, it is important that local physicians receive specialized training. This preparation can ensure they have the theoretical and practical skills to help patients improve their quality of life and health in later years.

There are a total of three qualifications available to study: ABAARM (American Board of Anti-Aging Regenerative Medicine); the Fellowship in Anti-Aging, Regenerative and Functional Medicine and ABAABP (American Board of Anti-Aging & Health Practitioners). These qualifications cover all elements of preventive anti-aging medicine from genomics to stem cells, nutritional therapies and cancer prevention, bio-identical hormone therapies as well as stress reduction and psychology. The Fellowship modules are now available to study online to allow doctors to complete their training whilst continuing to work in their practices.

As an optional module, doctors can also now apply their theoretical knowledge from the Fellowship and Board courses by completing an Applied Clinical Training, with Dr. Filippo Ongaro, Board Certified in Anti-Aging Medicine and Regenerative (ABAARM) at Ismerian, (Institute for Regenerative and Anti-Aging Medicine).

Ongaro said: “The Board Certification is especially helpful to my patients because it represents a guarantee of excellence in this new branch of medicine. In general universities are slow in adapting to new needs and innovative scientific fields and so the Board acts as an international institution, assuring that medical doctors wanting to practice anti-aging medicine have an adequate level of knowledge. Anyone serious in this field needs to be Board Certified.”

Max Sawaf CEO CosmeSurge Vitality and Aesthetic Centers in the UAE, Fellowship Trained and Board Certified, said: “This training gave me the courage to switch my practice from treating disease approved by third party payers to detecting pre-disease conditions”

Servane Collette, A4M Education Manager, commented “The A4M anti-aging training provides the unique opportunity for physicians to formally demonstrate their commitment to providing safe and evidence based anti-aging therapies, by guaranteeing a level of professional knowledge. Whether it’s a young physician looking to make anti-aging medicine their specialty, or a more experienced physician looking to broaden and update their knowledge in the newest areas of medicine, our qualifications will considerably enhance any physician’s professional development. Patients can actively seek out these physicians’ services with the confidence that they are qualified to treat them”.

OFFPRICE (August 15-18) "Movin on UP!" to New Home at The Sands for August Fashion Week

New Venue Features FREE WI-FI Café, a Department Store and Special Tours

BROOKFIELD, WI - The OFFPRICE Show organizers are pleased to report that pre-registration for their August Fashion Week marketplace is 5-11% higher than last year’s figures at this point in time before opening day.

“We are reporting a broad range to reflect the earlier than usual show dates,” said David Lapidos, Executive Vice President for OFFPRICE. “If we were to compare exact dates our numbers would be 25% higher. That’s not a fair analysis considering that we started later than usual (Aug 29- Sep 1/09) last year and we are opening much earlier (Aug 15-18) this year. Thus, our 5-11% range of increase accounts for 2009 dates as well as 2007 & 2008 openings (Aug 24 & Aug 23, respectively).”

Using this formula, new buyers attending the show is up 23-36% from last year, and the top retailers and “regular customers” will be in attendance for OFFPRICE’S inaugural in Halls A & B of The Sands.

“Everybody’s excited about moving upstairs,” said David Abbate, a buyer for Lady Rose Shops in West Hempstead, NY. Abbate has been attending OFFPRICE since it first opened in the hotel rooms of the old Debbie Reynolds in 1995, and remembers vividly when the show was held in tents outside the Sahara and Stardust. “Opening Fashion Week in the grand stage at The Sands where PROJECT AND (WWD)MAGIC used to be marks another major milestone for OFFPRICE. It’s rather timely when you consider OFFPRICE’s growth and stature in relation to the rest of the industry.”

Abbate has been the New Buyer Tour Guide at OFFPRICE since the August 2007 show. His experience both in retail and at the show has been an invaluable resource to new and repeat buyers trying to maximize opportunities on the 100,000+ square foot exhibition. And with an 8% increase in exhibitor space (1,150 Booths and counting), Abbate’s tours at the new venue will be more critical than ever for OFFPRICE buyers.

“There are new exhibitors, but there are also a lot of the old jobbers adding more booths to our new, more spacious venue,” asserts Lapidos. “They have expanded into new categories like accessories and are bringing more of their existing lines in anticipation of a great show. There will be a lot of excitement on both sides of the aisle, so David’s tour will feel like a safari!”

Because of the dramatic rise in boutique buyers coming to OFFPRICE, the show has added a second tour program on the first day of the show (Sunday, August 15th) specifically tailored to this segment. The 2 special tours will be lead by best-selling author and fashion retail expert T. J. Reid of Amite, Louisiana. Reid, who also publishes Fashion Advantage magazine, will take her groups to 10 of the best OFFPRICE vendors who cater to boutiques, as well as share tips on why she’s been coming to the show for more than 10 years. “Boutiques that are not shopping at OFFPRICE are really missing out on some terrific fashions that also happen to be margin-builders.”

Abbate agrees with Reid’s assessment of the wealth of opportunities in women’s trends at OFFPRICE. “Women’s and juniors are still hot out here. Ladies tops in particular are on fire, so look to see a lot of activity in this area at the show.”

In addition to the explosion in accessories and women’s, OFFPRICE is pleased to report more growth in footwear. Show management is also pleased to offer the following new amenities to better accommodate their enthusiastic buyer delegation:

• 3 Times More Vertical Aisles (compared to their old home downstairs at Hall G) to give buyers greater access to the deals.

• FREE WI-FI at their OFFPRICE Café located in Booths #1845 – 2245 in the center of the show floor. The Café will also offer FREE WEB MARKETING ADVICE for retailers and merchants from NY & LA Design House Digital Marauders. The cutting-edge agency is displaying at OFFPRICE to develop new business for their street fashion clients in the off price market.

• Department Store. Located at the front of the Show Floor, the Department Store will feature the hottest trends in a variety of categories that are available from different OFFPRICE exhibitors.

• Happy Hour, Sunday, August 15th, 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM at FIRST located in The Shoppes on the 2nd Floor of The Palazzo.

• AND, $5 Lunch at their enhanced OFFPRICE Bistro.

OFFPRICE opens Fashion Week on Sunday, August 15th at 8:00 AM, and run through Wednesday, August 18th at 3:00 PM.

Interim Statement of Results to 30 June 2010

Dubai, UAE. 21 July 2010 – Dubai Airshow organiser F&E Aerospace has confirmed that the third Aircraft Interiors Middle East (AIME) show will take place in Dubai from 1 to 2 February 2012.

The show comprises workshops and an exhibition which will be a platform for new design features, smart cabin fittings and the industry’s latest technological innovations.

Michele Van Akelijen, Event Director at F&E Aerospace, said: “With the order books of the region’s carriers being transformed into actual aircraft deliveries over the next couple of years, procurement departments are finalising their preferences for cabin interiors, specifically seats, inflight entertainment and galley equipment.

“The third running of AIME, therefore, comes at the right time, assisting airlines in making smart decisions on their cabin interiors to ensure a better travel experience for their customers.”

Order books were rapidly filled up over the two days of the last AIME show in February 2010 at Dubai’s Airport Expo.

Oman Air signed a contract with UAE-based Spatial Composite Solutions for two cabin evacuation trainers; Air Arabia signed a seven-year contract with Botany Weaving of Ireland for seat fabric, curtains and carpeting; and Arabia Jets of Saudi Arabia signed a contract with French aircraft livery designer Happy Design Studio to offer their clients customised liveries and visual identity.
