Natural and organic trade shows draw massive crowds

BioFach/Vivaness 2023 tradeshow

BioFach and Vivaness and Natural Products Expo West, attracted a combined total of more than 100,000 supporters of organic and natural products.

BioFach is the world’s leading organic trade show while Vivaness focuses on natural beauty. The combined show, which was held in Nuremberg, Germany February 14-17, attracted almost 36,000 trade visitors from 135 countries who visited 2,765 exhibitors from 95 countries. At BioFach and Vivaness, “strong” and “confident” described the start to the year’s international events for the organic foodstuffs and natural and organic personal care sector. The focus was on variety, networking and professional interaction, and the highly topical Congress theme of “Organic. Food Sovereignty. True Prices.” The organic sector and the combined trade fair event proved crisis-resistant, as they demonstrated with revenues of €15.3 billion ($16.5 billion) for the German organic market in 2022 (BÖLW) and €125 billion ($135 billion) globally in 2021.
