Andalusia, Guest Region at Fruit Attraction 2023

As Fruit Attraction 2023’s Guest Region, Andalusia will be given a prominent role and strategic visibility to promote the wealth of fruit and vegetables found in all its provinces and the extraordinary quality of its produce to the whole world.

Specific areas

Featuring its slogan “Growing together!”, the fruit and vegetable industry’s major trade event will be organised around six exhibition areas. The most widely represented will once again be Fresh Produce, with the full range of fruit and vegetable products, in addition to Related Industry, which brings together the entire value chain of the industry, and Fresh Food Logistics, the space for logistics, transport and cold chain management for foodstuffs.

In addition, Fruit Attraction is once again committed to transformation solutions through innovation, sustainability and digitalisation with Smart Agro, an area specialising in innovative products that apply ICT to the fruit and vegetable industry, and Biotech Attraction, a specialised space for research and technological development in plant genomics. Ecorganic Market once again steps up, as the exclusive space for the marketing and export of organic products continues to gain momentum. Additionally, lettuce stands out as the star product of Fruit Attraction 2023.

In its next edition, the fair will continue to implement initiatives aimed at favouring sales, promotion, development and growth of exhibiting companies. In regard to this, the powerful International Buyers Programme will once again be joined by the Noted Importing Countries initiative, with Brazil, Canada and the United States taking centre stage. This will promote trade relations between the countries of the European Union and these non-EU markets, backed by a full programme of round tables, guided tours of the fair and B2B sessions.

Once again, The Innovation Hub and Fruit Next will be the areas dedicated to innovation and new business developments in the industry. Concerning this area, Fruit Attraction will once again host the Innovation Hub Awards, which have become a fundamental event for supporting the business entrepreneurial commitment in the industry.

It will also once again become a knowledge centre in the Forums with a complete programme of technical conferences made up of sessions characterised by a wide variety of content, as well as the high level of the participants and speakers.

And the gastronomic space within Fruit Attraction, Factoría Chef, will return with attractive demonstrations and cooking shows.  A one-of-a-kind setting for promoting fruit and vegetable producers on the international channel, in order to highlight the quality and excellence of these foods, as well as the countless ways that the hotel, restaurant and catering channel proposes for eating them.
