Messe Frankfurt and Dechema are extending their cooperation. The Frankfurt exhibition grounds will remain the venue for Achema, World Forum and Leading International Trade Fair for the Process Industry, until at least 2027.
As the organiser of Achema, Dechema Ausstellungs-GmbH has decided to continue the successful partnership with Messe Frankfurt, which has already existed for over eight decades. Achema has a three-year cycle. The event planned for 2021 had to be postponed due to the pandemic and will take place from 4 to 8 April 2022; the following events will be held in 2024 and 2027.
“Achema is one of the largest and most important guest events in our portfolio and a flagship for Frankfurt as a trade fair location. That is why we are very pleased about the long-term continuation of this partnership. Particularly in the current extraordinarily challenging times for the trade fair and event industry, we are sending a clear signal with this contract extension – a signal for the future of high-quality, international events and personal encounters”, says Uwe Behm, Member of the Board of Management of Messe Frankfurt. Dr. Thomas Scheuring, Managing Director of Dechema Ausstellungs-GmbH, emphasised the optimal infrastructure that makes the Frankfurt trade fair venue the ideal venue for the process industry in the chemical, pharma and related industries: “The Frankfurt exhibition grounds with its state-of-the-art facilities and ideal location are a factor in Achema’s success. We very much welcome the fact that we will be able to use this success factor in the future and continue our successful partnership.”
