Top ideas with top potential

The FRUIT LOGISTICA Innovation Award (FLIA) will be presented for the nineteenth time in 2025 by Messe Berlin GmbH and Fruitnet Media International. In addition to the FLIA, the FLIA Technology will be awarded for outstanding innovations in the field of Machinery & Technology.

The FLIA has become the most important award for the entire international fruit and vegetable industry. It honours outstanding innovations in the entire fruit and vegetable supply chain from production to the point of sale. Innovations can be products, services or technical innovations.

The winners of FLIA and FLIA Technology will be chosen by the trade visitors to FRUIT LOGISTICA 2025. On the first two days of the exhibition, our trade visitors will have the opportunity to vote for their favourite. The voting cards will be counted on the last day of the fair. The subsequent awards ceremony is one of the annual highlights of FRUIT LOGISTICA.
