About CAST

Since 1984, CAST has been the leading trade platform in Nieuwegein, strategically located along the A2. What began as a footwear center has evolved into a modern trading hub where supply and demand in the world of footwear, sports, and fashion come together efficiently.

Events

In addition to facilitating showrooms, CAST organizes seasonal events for the footwear, sport, and fashion industry, where retailers can view and purchase the latest collections while connecting with brands and discovering trends.

PREVIEW

Since July 2020, PREVIEW has been an initiative by CAST in collaboration with passionate fashion agencies. The event has become a great success, and we now organize multiple editions for men, women, kids, as well as footwear and accessories.
