Looking back at 2016
This was GLORIA 2016
H
eld between 25th and 27th February 2016, more than 4,200 visitors were able to
find out about current trends at the 16th GLORIA church trade fair in Augsburg.
The only church trade fair in the German-speaking area saw an increase in visitors of 40%. The atmosphere was
brilliant amongst exhibitors and visitors alike, displaying an upwards trend for the church trade fair. And the 50%
proportion of new exhibitors that GLORIA offered also confirms the future significance of the church trade fair
for Germany, Austria and Switzerland!
„GLORIA is ideal for target-group-specific networking.
And I mean that deliberately ecumenically, being a
representative of the Evangelische Bank in a mostly
Catholic environment.“
Roman Walter, Evangelische Bank eG
„Many decision-makers visited our stand,
we were in great demand. The specialist
audience appeared very interested. We are
happy with how the trade fair went, and we
will be back!“
„We saw some very interested visitors at our
stand and expect most certainly to see associated orders. For us, participation was worth it.“
Regina Schafhauser - Kilpper Sitzmöbel
„We were surprised by GLORIA. We were able to make many
new contacts and present ourselves successfully. The audience
was mixed, different to what we had expected, and very interested. Some great conversations were held.“
Jonas Vial – Wort des Lebens e.V.
Ronny Havener – Havener GmbH
„Participation was definitely worth it. We won over a few new
customers, which means the result of our participation was very
good.“ Michael Brandmaier – Brandmaier Informative Anzeigen
„We are certainly a satisfied exhibitor. Many interesting conversations,
specific inquiries and numerous prearranged appointments after the fair.
We are under serious pressure to
master the inquiries.“
Gernot Dürr – Dürr Turmuhren und Glocken
GmbH & Co KG
„Professional lighting will, in future, increasingly
be established in churches. We are new exhibitors at GLORIA, but taking part was definitely
worth it. We had potential contacts visit us at the
stand, and we hope these will lead to good business after the fair.“
„Yesterday, we had customers queueing up! We
did good business, our specialist customers were
in attendance, as expected. We will certainly be
back again.“
Matthias Schwab – Steinigke Showtechnik
Alexander Buchinger - Strässer Medientechnik

Augsburg - the ideal location for GLORIA
GLORIA situated at the ideal location, central for Germany, Austria and Switzerland!
d!
The city of Augsburg is rich in tradition and culture. With a history stretching back
more than 2000 years, it has much to offer, from Romans through to the textile industry. The father of musical genius Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born here, Bertolt
Brecht went to school in Augsburg and wrote „Baal“ in the city. Augsburg, the city
of the renaissance, has many churches and chapels that are well worth a visit and
which reflect the influence of Martin Luther on the history of the city. The Religious
Peace of Augsburg in 1555 influenced the self-conception of the city with regard to
peace. Augsburg has a cathedral and unites all the major confessions, as the city off
religious peace and of fair trade.
