The 34th edition of CPM (Collection Premiere Moscow), the largest tradeshow for men’s, women’s and kid’s wear, lingerie, eveningwear and accessories in Eastern Europe, drew to a close on February 27, 2020. In 15 halls of Moscow’s Expocentre, 1,375 brands from 30 countries successfully showcased to around 22,000 professional visitors from Russia and the Eurasian Economic Union.
Nikolay Yarzew, CPM Project Director Russia and CIS said: “CPM has once again confirmed its status as Eastern Europe’s leading tradeshow platform. In particular we would like to emphasise buyers’ growing influence and high level of interest in collections from Russia itself. After the slight increase in VAT in 2019, order volume is picking up once again. Brands from Belarus, the Ukraine, Moldova, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Georgia and other countries are also becoming popular. Thanks to our cooperation with associations, we can always ensure that new brands are presented at every edition of CPM. Start-ups from these markets are also provided market entry opportunities. CPM is a strong event for the retail sector.”
The next CPM will be taking place from September 1 to 4, 2020 at the Expocentre exhibition grounds in Moscow.
