  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

FAS/The Hague visited the Nordic Organic Food Fair in Malmö, Sweden on November 14, 2019. This is a regional (Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Denmark) trade show focusing on organics and vegan products. Although the show was relatively small, exhibitors informed FAS/The Hague that they were relatively pleased with quality of buyers it attracted (i.e., a mix of smaller retail buyers, food processors and E-commerce traders). Although there were ten country pavilions, 90 percent of the exhibitors were based in Europe. There were five exhibitors from the United States. In addition, several seminars were organized on the margins of the show. NOTE: This show is not open to the public.
