Just like in past years EuroCIS 2022 will feature "Guided Retail Technology Innovation Tours" in German and English.
At EuroCIS 2022, The Leading Trade Fair for Retail Technology, from 31 May to 2 June in Düsseldorf, guided tours will be offered again for trade visitors. These highly coveted tours will be carried out by Messe Düsseldorf in cooperation with renowned retail expert Joachim Pinhammer who will flag up selected innovations on display at the trade fair.
This year the first two days of the trade fair will see both a German and an English-speaking tour. The German tour will start in the morning at 11.30 am, the English tour in the afternoon at 2.30 pm. On Thursday at 11.30 am another German tour will be offered. The meeting point for all participants is always Eingang/Entrance Nord.
Each "Guided Innovation Tour" lasts 90 minutes. After a brief introduction covering the latest industry trends the visitor groups will visit the stands of a total of 10 exhibiting companies to find out more about the respective products and solutions on display there. A broad cross-section of solutions will be featured meaning many different trade fair themes will be covered.

Furthermore, the fair will also feature ViviTag showcasing the smallest touch display on the market, and Fashion ESL presenting a smart changing cubicle.
