The winter edition of the international trade fair for green fashion Innatex has been postponed to February. In changing their plans, the organisers MUVEO GmbH have reacted rapidly to the latest forecasts from the virus experts and to the changing situation regarding the spread of the Omicron variant in January, which remains unpredictable.

The organisers intend to set a new date in mid or late February. They are currently consulting the exhibitors and expect to reach a conclusion in the next few days, the organisers said in a press release.

“We are in regular discussions with our exhibitors and partners, and we know that the green fashion community needs a platform for winter ordering,” said Alexander Hitzel, Innatex project manager. “In view of the fact that other live events have been cancelled this season, we see it as our duty more than ever to facilitate a gathering where products can be presented, orders can be taken and people can network – even if conditions are more difficult again.”

“We are in constant contact with the authorities but we will have to await developments before we can move on to the configuration of the event. We know what we’re doing by now and can adjust and react rapidly to political decisions and the changing course of the pandemic,” Hitzel continued.

MUVEO is one of a very small number of fair organisers that has managed to put on a safe six-monthly ordering platform throughout the entire pandemic, with a comprehensive hygiene policy and practice.
