BRAZIL – ForMóbile 2020 is the latest casualty in a long list of trade shows cancelled or postponed due to incompatibility of large gatherings with the COVID-19 pandemic. The new date is yet to be decided.

 Programmed to take place from June 30th to July 3rd in Sao Paulo, ForMóbile’s organizer had no other alternative but to postpone and abide to the regulations in place by local authorities to prevent and contain a possible exponential growth of the disease, protecting the health and well-being of all those directly and indirectly involved with the event, such as exhibitors, sponsors, visitors and suppliers.

“Informa Markets, ForMóbile’s event organizer, attending and following all the determinations of the health authorities of the Ministry of Health, Government of the State of Sao Paulo and the Municipality of Sao Paulo, which decrees the temporary suspension of events in order to contain the spread of the COVID-19 virus, decided to postpone ForMóbile 2020, the International Furniture and Wood Industry Fair, which would take place from June 30th to July 3rd, in the city of São Paulo,” the organizers said.
