I think Bruno has made the same experiences as other publishers of full figures:
The market is oversaturated, there are many new companies, who serve the changed tastes of customers differently - better? - the buyers also keep their money more together than in the past - and visiting trade fairs and events is less and less worthwhile, because much of the market today is handled via the Internet.
And don't forget the recasters - a more and more raising problem!
Many of those who are busy as firm owners and sculptors have considered leaving the entrepreneurial risk and concentrating on what they do best in the future: making beautiful figures!
Cheers
