  • Natural Food Show Previews New Innovations for 2015
    Mar 04, 2015 11:31 GMT Natural Food Show previews new innovations for 2015 The Natural Food Show at Natural & Organic Products Europe – the UK’s only dedicated trade show for natural, organic, fair trade, sustainable, vegan, vegetarian, free from, and special diet food and drink, has released its first preview of some of the new products on show this year. Taking place at the new venue of ExCeL London, next month on 19-20 April, the show boasts a 10% increase in exhibition space for food and drink companies for 2015. Seven weeks out from opening day, over 600 exhibitors are already confirmed and visitor pre-registrations are also well ahead. Over 10,000 attendees are expected, including representatives from well-known operators like Waitrose, Ocado, Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Abel & Cole, John Lewis, Whole Foods Market, Planet Organic, As Nature Intended, Riverford, Nisa Retail, Fresh & Wild, Costco, Carrefour, BaxterStorey, Bidvest 3663 and Sodexo. Organic sales on the increase Over 60% of this year’s New Product Showcase entries, which is on track to include over 300 products, have been entered into the food, organic food, drink, and special diet categories. Notably, given last week’s announcement by the Soil Association of a 4% rise in UK organic sales[1] to over £1.86 billion, of these four showcase categories, organic food and drink boasts the most entries of all. Key findings from the association’s latest Organic Market Report revealed that shoppers spent an extra £1.4 million a week on organic products last year (against a falling overall food market), and 83% of UK households purchasing organic products.
