WORLD ORGANIC TRADE FAIR
February 19 - 22, 2009 Nuremberg, Germany

 

CLOSING REPORT

With 2,565 exhibitors and over 45,500 trade visitors from 112 countries, BioFach is the world’s leading international organic trade show. (www.biofach.com).

46,484 trade visitors (2007: 45,469*) streamed into the Nürnberg exhibition centre from 21-24 February, 2008, to source information about the world market for organic products and natural personal care. The international share of attendance rose by 4 points to 37 %. The trade visitors came from 116 countries: after Germany, mainly from Austria, Poland, the Netherlands, Italy and France. Stricter admission conditions and their intensive control ensured another increase in the quality of attendance. The visitors were impressed by the rich, enjoyable and innovative range of products from the 2,764 exhibitors (2007: 2,547*), two thirds of whom came from abroad. Besides an impressively strong presence of German organic producers (939), Italy (397), Spain (211), France (175) and Austria (112) were very well represented.

“Where organic people meet! The entire industry – national and international – visited Nürnberg for four days. Highly satisfied exhibitors and visitors, an inspiring and dynamic industry. BioFach and Vivaness were extremely successful again in 2008,” said Claus Rättich, Member of the Management Board of NürnbergMesse.
