Jaw dropping European Sales meeting Body Glove

Body Glove just finished the Sales meeting for the EU countries. The new spring/summer apparel collection 2010 was presented in a breath taking show on the catwalk. Jaws kept on dropping when the introduction of wetsuits and other hardgoods followed in the new Body Glove showroom. After that it was off to some real rafting action in the artificial rivers of Dutch Water Dreams (sponsored with Body Glove wetsuits), reducing the sales-talk to an occasional blub and splatter. Later that night impressions of distributors and agents were shared under the comfort of a BBQ and a ambiance set by the new Body Glove band ‘Headlife’. Alcohol loosened the tongues more and more towards the end of the evening, strengthening the family feeling and revealing a sincere enthusiasm for what is to come in 2010.
