Messe Frankfurt acquires textile cleaning show

Messe Frankfurt has acquired the textile-care industry’s leading trade show in France and their second show in the sector in a month. The German organizer’s Paris division, Messe Frankfurt France, took over ownership of JET Expo, a biennial exhibition held at the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles. It was the latest move to enhance Messe Frankfurt’s growing international roster of trade shows in the textile-care and dry-cleaning arena. The company recently acquired The Clean Show, a biennial “Trade Show Executive Gold 100” show held in Atlanta. In addition, Messe Frankfurt merged its Texcare Asia show with China Laundry Expo.
