UK: Natural & Organic Products Europe’s exhibition space sold out

Nearly a quarter of the countries in the world will be represented at this year’s Natural & Organic Products Europe, when it returns to London’s Olympia on 13-14 April 2014. Firmly established as Europe’s leading natural and organic trade event, the show, which has increased its exhibition space by 11% for 2014, is now completely sold out. Event organiser Diversified Communications UK says that the strong exhibitor uptake paints an encouraging picture of growing market confidence. The event’s New Products Showcase is now also fully booked with a record 279 entries (up 12% on the same time last year).

As a snapshot of the natural and organic market, the 2013 event certainly reflected a more buoyant mood than in recent years. Feedback from the show floor saw many delighted exhibitors commenting that the attendees - 8,810 in all - were ready and, perhaps more importantly, able to do business. For 2014, Natural & Organic Products Europe is looking to build on that success, with an unprecedented 550 companies from 45 countries preparing to showcase thousands of brands (including food, drink, health, nutrition, personal care, beauty and eco-living products) when doors open next month.

With all the stands booked, many of the show’s pavilion participants have also now been confirmed. New pavilions this year are the Eco Luxe Beauty, Soil Association Organic Chilled Food, and the Sicilian Organic Food Pavilion. Further pavilions this year are: USA, HFMA;Vegan Society, Raw Food, Argentinean, French Food, Italian Food; and Organic Trade Board Pavilion. The show’s full exhibitor list is available here.
