BASELWORLD 2009
Basel, April 2009
With the exception of the Americans, who were underrepresented this year, all the industry’s international players made the trip to Baselworld. The drop in visitors compared to the record numbers of last year can be explained by the fact that the delegations came in smaller groups. Nevertheless, the rendezvous in Basel proved to be as crucial as ever: for the exhibitors on the one hand, as a large part of their sales are realised here and it is vital to remain visible in a generally difficult economic climate; on the other, for the retailers as the Show represents the biggest showcase of new trends and innovations in every sector – watchmaking, jewellery and related branches – and at every price level. Furthermore, Baselworld provides the best opportunity for exhibitors and retailers to make contacts, get informed and develop long-term relationships. All signs of confidence and respect, which are so important to the Swiss Exhibitors.
Baselworld 2009 in figures:
- - 93’900 visitors

- - 453 Swiss brands
- - 160’000 m2 of overall exhibition space
