It’s show time!
Welcome to the rst issue of
2019 and that means only one
thing to all of us in the hunting
market – it’s SHOT Show time!
SHOT Show, along with IWA in
Germany, represents the best chance for
you to go and visit all of your business
partners and prospective partners under
one roof. It will be the rst time I’m
making the trip ‘over the pond’ to visit
SHOT and I can’t wait to put faces to the
names and voices of our American friends
that I didn’t catch at IWA last March.
From what I’ve been told it’s an exciting
and vibrant place to do business and I’m
sure this year’s show won’t be any di erent.
In this month’s issue we head on over
to Portugal and nd out why this oftenoverlooked
market might be ripe for
picking, a new Turkish company is on the
rise - we discover out who and why, plus
FACE has been busy promoting hunting
in Europe, we look at how they are doing
so.
Elsewhere the Daystate Red Wolf
airgun is making waves over in America,
we preview the ICAST shing show held
in Florida this summer – an essential show
to attend if your business crosses over into
angling products as well as hunting and
Cal Ward looks at the changing face of
body armour.
It’s a packed issue full of the latest news,
views and innovative products spanning
the global marketplace.
See you at the SHOT Show!
