Save the date for ‘bigger than ever’ Fine Food NZ!

 

Space at New Zealand’s premier food retail, food service and hospitality trade show is rapidly running out as exhibitors take advantage of the opportunity to showcase and demonstrate their products and services to industry influencers, trade buyers and key decision-makers.

Scheduled for 24 to 26 June 2018, Fine Food New Zealand is the largest trade event of its kind, with nearly three quarters of the available space in the ASB Showgrounds already booked.

Lorraine Smith, Fine Food New Zealand Event Manager says national and international food and beverage companies, packaging and commercial equipment companies must act fast to secure a spot. “It’s the fifth edition of the show and evolving to be the best yet! If you’re in the food retail, food service and hospitality sectors you won’t want to miss this three-day trade show.”

The exhibition is a unique opportunity for food and beverage producers, packaging companies and commercial equipment suppliers to bring their products to the attention of key decision makers in the hospitality, food retail and foodservice sectors. In addition to extensive showcase opportunities, Fine Food New Zealand offers multiple educational and informative seminars to attract, engage and educate trade visitors.

Exhibitor and event partner Dale Spencer (Publisher and Managing Director of Intermedia Group) says the reason for trade to visit Fine Food New Zealand is simple: “It’s the only show of its kind in the country that gathers all the major players and it only happens every two years.”

A long-time participant, Dale says the show continues to grow with significant investment from organisers and exhibitors. “The importance of the event to the New Zealand industry is reflected with the involvement of all the key associations as partners. You can’t beat the awareness and opportunity for face-to-face networking and education about your products to more than 8,000 trade visitors.”
