On closing its doors after three successful trade fair days, the first edition of ANUFOOD Eurasia, organised by Anuga, had achieved good results.
212 suppliers from 29 countries presented the diversity of the food industry at the Tüyap Fair Convention and Congress Center in Istanbul. The share of foreign participation was 42 per cent. The trade fair premiere, jointly organised by Koelnmesse and Reed Tüyap, aroused great interest among the trade visitors.
It is estimated that about 6 000 trade visitors from around 70 countries took the opportunity to gather information and place orders. ‘With this result, ANUFOOD Eurasia has confirmed its claim of positioning itself as the new marketplace for the food and beverage industry in the Eurasian region,’ comments Denis Steker, vice president of international/outbound fairs at Koelnmesse. ‘The exhibiting companies reported excellent interest from buyers in Turkey as well as from neighbouring countries. The trade fair was able to generate valuable impulses for long-term business relationships in the region.’
In total, 212 exhibitors from 29 countries presented their offers ranging from fine food, frozen foods, meat and dairy products, chilled and fresh foods, to bread, baked goods, sweets, beverages, organic foods and Halaal products, through to services & RetailTec, associations, organisations and IT service providers.
