BioFach China: China stays on the ball with organics

Thu, 01 Dec 2011 00:00:00 +0100

When from 24 to 26 May, at the INTEX Exhibition Centre in Shanghai/China, everything is once again revolving round organic, the organic market will have moved a big step forward compared with last year. Interest in organic food, natural cosmetics and natural textiles is growing unabated. Although more and more producers are trying to meet this steadily increasing demand in their own country, imports are gaining in importance. Evidence for this trend is the fact that BioFach China is becoming increasingly international: in 2011 13 % of the manufacturers came from abroad. The reason is that, as well as the domestic market growing, organic markets in the west have an increasing need for organic raw materials. In the last five years BioFach China has expanded rapidly. More than 14,500 visitors (+ 27 %) and 342 exhibitors were the record figures registered at the anniversary event in May 2011. Many participants praised the professional nature of the fair. For the sixth BioFach in Shanghai, NürnbergMesse China is expecting around 15,000 visitors and more than 350 exhibitors, and the exhibition area is likely to be much bigger too.
