About us

Our mission

messe-journal.com is an independent editorial portal covering the German trade fair landscape. We report on innovations, product novelties and industry trends at German trade fairs — with no financial ties to fair organisers, exhibitors or trade associations.

Method & source standards

"A figure without a source does not exist." — Every number, floor area, or visitor count published on this portal must carry a source reference (source_url + source_date) and an audit status. If that information is missing, the value is not displayed.

Source classification

FKM-geprüft

FKM-verified — Figures from the FKM report (independent audit body for trade fair and exhibition statistics in Germany).

Veranstalter

Organiser statement — Figures communicated directly by the fair organiser, without independent third-party verification.

Unverified — Figures that are neither FKM-verified nor officially confirmed by the organiser are not published on this portal.

Languages

The portal is available in six languages: German, English, French, Spanish, Arabic and Russian. All editorial content is written in the original language and then translated into the other languages.
