ECR Tag Bonn

The ECR Tag is the leading industry event for manufacturing, retail, and services in the consumer goods sector. Organized by GS1 Germany GmbH in Cologne, the event takes place annually – usually in September – at the renowned World Conference Center in Bonn and is exclusively open to trade visitors.

Efficient Consumer Response (ECR) refers to an initiative aimed at fostering closer collaboration between manufacturers and retailers to reduce costs and better meet consumer needs. In this context, the ECR Tag provides a high-level platform for discussions on key topics such as category management, sustainability, sales, procurement, and key account management.

The event attracts an international audience and brings together top decision-makers to discuss current developments, challenges, and opportunities in the industry. Renowned experts share their insights on the latest retail trends and present innovative strategies for increasing efficiency. In addition to hands-on presentations and expert panels, the ECR Tag offers numerous networking opportunities that facilitate exchange between participants and lay the foundation for new collaborations.

A special highlight of the event is the exclusive ECR Party, which provides a stylish setting for personal conversations and new contacts. This is where valuable ideas and impulses for the future of the consumer goods industry emerge.

As a venue, the World Conference Center Bonn offers a modern infrastructure with optimal accessibility. Its location in the heart of Bonn allows for convenient travel by public transportation as well as by car. Parking facilities are available nearby, ensuring a smooth experience for attendees.

The ECR Tag is much more than a traditional trade fair – it is a hub of innovation and networking that combines sustainable solutions with economic efficiency and plays a crucial role in the development of the industry.

The ECR Tag will take place on 2 days from Tuesday, 30. September to Wednesday, 01. October 2025 in Bonn.
