Anuga Foodtec 2012 expands exhibition space due to strong demand

Anuga FoodTec (27th to 30th March 2012) is expanding its exhibition space by including an additional hall in the trade show.

Very strong demand for exhibition space at world’s leading trade fair for the food and beverage production industry means next year it will also occupy Hall 5.2 in addition to the originally planned Halls 4.1, 5.1, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.1.

This makes a gross exhibition space totalling 127,000 square metres available for Anuga Foodtec 2012

With a little less than seven months remaining until the trade fair begins, more than 800 exhibiting companies have already registered.

And a large number of new exhibiting companies from Germany and abroad will take part for the first time at Anuga FoodTec in 2012. More than 170 new exhibitors have registered so far.

In addition many companies have announced they will have significantly larger stands, and this increased demand for exhibition space is made possible by the integration of Hall 5.2 in the Anuga FoodTec event structure.

“Due to the high number of registrations received and the strong demand for stand space, we have already surpassed the total area occupied by Anuga FoodTec 2009,” reports a delighted Peter Grothues, Vice President Food, Technology and Environment at Koelnmesse GmbH.

Anuga FoodTec, the international trade fair for food and drink technology, takes place every three years and is jointly organized by Koelnmesse GmbH and the German Agricultural Society (DLG).
