- New venue with lots of space for wide range of organic products
- Ideal platform for cultivating business relationships
The BIOFACH AMERICA LATINA – BIO BRAZIL FAIR will open its
doors again from 6 to 9 June 2018. This 14th edition of Brazil’s most
important organic products exhibition will be held at the Anhembi
Exhibition Grounds in São Paulo for the first time. Visitors and
exhibitors are expected from around the world, including from Peru,
South Korea, the United States, Chile, China and Italy. This exhibition,
to be held concurrently with the Naturaltech Exhibition, is the central
point of contact for Latin America’s organic products industry. In
addition to the new venue, the exhibition will feature organised
business meetings and an international forum.
Fuelled by rising consumer demand, the consumption of organic foods is
rising steadily in Brazil. Sales of organic foods in this country have since
grown to more than R$ 3 billion, or US$ 900 million. This development will
certainly be reflected at the BIOFACH AMERICA LATINA – BIO BRAZIL
FAIR 2018, which will be held at the Anhembi Exhibition Grounds in São
Paulo. This venue offers plenty of space for all exhibitors and visitors to
Latin America’s largest international exhibition for organic products and
ecological agriculture to discover the latest trends and exciting new
developments in the organic products industry. Moreover, the excellent
infrastructure of Anhembi Park, which is one of Latin America’s most
important event centres, has been attested to by exhibitors and visitors for
many years. This offshoot of BIOFACH Nürnberg is thus an excellent
meeting place to establish or deepen business relationships with Brazil’s
most important decision makers and associations in the organic products
industry, as well as international organic product companies.
Knowledge platform and networking expertise
In addition to the product show, the exhibition will serve as a central
knowledge platform thanks to the “International Forum of Organic and
Sustainable Production”, where numerous presentations and panels will
deliver concentrated expertise in organic products over a total of more than
100 hours. In addition, the so-called “Area Conhecimento” and “Area
Inspiração” featuring selected discussions and contents will provide
inspirational ideas for Latin America’s burgeoning organic products sector.
Concurrently, The BIOFACH AMERICA LATINA – BIO BRAZIL FAIR will
also create ideal conditions for establishing business contacts in an
exclusive setting of organized business meetings between vendors, buyers
and retailers of organic products.
Experience the full range of organic diversity
Thanks to the numerous product segments on display, visitors to the
BIOFACH AMERICA LATINA – BIO BRAZIL FAIR will experience the full
range of organic diversity. The offering ranges from foods to cosmetics and
clothing. Besides trade visitors, the exhibition is also aimed at interested
consumers of organic products, so as to bind them closer to the industry
and demonstrate the advantages of a sustainable lifestyle. For this reason,
the exhibition is open to the general public on all days, thereby bridging the
divide between direct consumer outreach and contact cultivation as an
exclusive business platform.
Looking back to 2017, a record year for the exhibition
The 2017 exhibition proved to be a record-breaking event: 25,664 exhibition
guests, 35% more than the year before, learned everything about the latest
products and services from 167 pure organic products exhibitors. The
organized business meetings were also a big success for the participating
exhibitors and trade visitors. In total, 416 meetings were held, leading to
numerous deals. The resulting revenues probably amounted to US$ 7.2
million, almost ten times as much as the preceding event.
BIOFACH World
NürnbergMesse has proven expertise in the field of organic foodstuffs. In
February every year, the international organic sector gathers in Nuremberg
at BIOFACH, the world’s leading fair for organic food products. The
comprehensive range of certified organic products on display shows their diversity – from fresh products like dairy and cheese, fruit, vegetables, dry
products like grains and pulses, nuts and confectionery to beverages. The
international patron of BIOFACH is IFOAM – Organics International, the
national honorary sponsor the German Federation of Organic Food
Producers (BÖLW). An integral part of this world-leading fair is the
BIOFACH Congress, a knowledge-sharing platform that is unique
worldwide. With another six BIOFACH events in Japan, the USA, South
America, China, India and Thailand, BIOFACH World has a global
presence and year for year brings together more than 3,000 exhibitors and
100,000 trade visitors.
