2nd edition of Natural & Organic Products Asia

In August 2014, over 5,100 top buyers from 39 countries gathered in Hong Kong for the first Natural & Organic Products Asia (NOPA). After this successful debut, the fair will return to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre on 26 – 28 August 2015. The UK-based Soil Association Certification announced a partnership with China’s organic certification body, the Organic Food Development Centre (OFDC), in 2014. This partnership makes it easier and cheaper for UK’s organic businesses to export to China and in the region, and the Soil Association will take part in NOPA this year with their first Soil Association Trade Pavilion in Asia.

Some of the further highlights at the fair are the Natural Beauty & Spa Theatre, where hosts will uncover the latest trends and products in a number of sessions. The Natural Food Kitchen will feature some of the biggest names in natural cooking that will teach their recipes, exciting techniques, and new ways of thinking about cooking. Natural business pioneers will share the tools and knowledge that can boost a business in this fast-growing industry in the Natural Business Forum. The New Product Showcase will highlight the cutting-edge products available at NOPA 2015. The NOPA Awards celebrate innovation and excellence across the natural and organic industry. Voted for by professional buyers, winners will be announced at an award ceremony. Award categories for NOPA 2015 include: best made in Hong Kong product, best new natural / organic food, best new natural / organic beverage, best new health & nutrition product, best new natural lifestyle product, best new natural / organic beauty & Spa product, best new natural / organic mother & baby product, as well as the outstanding natural / organic product award.
