Luggage Market to Exceed

$45 Billion by 2010

The luggage industry produces a wide variety of products, including suitcases, briefcases, attache cases, hand luggage, tote bags, trunks, and occupational cases.

The linkage of luggage with fashion demands luggage suppliers to constantly innovate to meet evolving lifestyles and trends.

In an industry in which consumer sales are counted in years rather than seasons --

about every seven years consumers get the itch to buy new bags --

Innovation and style are king.
