Press release JdC Garden Trends 2022 - 10 February 2022
JdC Garden Trends bloom again in spring
The JdC Garden Trends 2022, which will be held from 29 to 31 March 2022, will be marked by the reunion of the "Garden" sector in Marseille. Indeed, after two years of meetings and contacts through screens due to the health crisis, the desire to return to real human contacts has never been so strong, driven by a market that has shown excellent performance over twelve months: + 12% for the garden products sector (source: GfK, study at the end of September 2021).
This 18th edition will therefore undoubtedly be as festive and convivial as it is professional. Three days to get information, exchange, share and enrich your network. Three days to discover the collections, the ranges and the products. Three days to negotiate and start the first phase of referencing. Three days to optimise your time and prepare the coming season.
The industry is on the move
The JdC Garden Trends 2022 is shaping up to be a greatsuccess!
More than 360 French and European exhibitors are present - 45% of whom will be participating for the first time - which represents more than 1,000 brands offered to some 1,300 purchasing decisionmakers and prescribers from all distribution channels: specialised superstores, DIY superstores, food superstores, e-commerce, but also landscapers and other traders. The reunion edition, an exceptional edition eagerly awaited by the entire industry!
The JdC Garden Trends creates meetings and facilitates contacts between suppliers and buyers in order to optimise the key referencing period. It is an opportunity to discover a wide and diversified offer of leading, emerging and alternative brands, and to access new opportunities thanks to the 155 new exhibitors present at the show. By being at the heart of societal changes thanks to the presentation of products that respond to tomorrow's consumer trends and to enriched content that will decipher the behaviour of new consumers, the 18th edition of JdC Garden Trends will highlight the excellence, know-how and innovation of the garden sector.
Two watchwords: efficiency and performance!
The JdC Garden Trends exhibition isstructured around 3 fundamental areas:
- Gardening, with over 200 exhibitors, the largest European concentration of solutions, tools and products for the garden.
- Building & Landscaping, with more than 180 leading exhibitors for the building industry.
- Outdoor Living, with more than 200 exhibitors bringing together the most important offer in the field of well-being and the art of living in the garden. Note the strong growth of the barbecue sector, represented by a record number of fifty exhibitors
