Fresh Produce Forum

Continuous innovation, meeting consumer expectations, overcoming societal challenges and always staying on a growth path. How does the Fresh Produce chain do this?

Year after year, the international fruit trade and the entire value chain make an immense contribution to the healthy nutrition of people worldwide. In many countries, fruit and vegetables are also important economic factors. But social developments and climate change are constantly redefining the framework conditions and presenting the industry with new challenges. FRUIT LOGISTICA's Fresh Produce Forum makes an important contribution to mastering these challenges.

Here, market figures and consumer behaviour are scrutinised, supplier countries, markets and the potential of individual products or ranges are analysed and the latest developments on topics such as digitalisation or packaging are presented.

In ten one-hour sessions, exhibitors and trade visitors can find out about the hot topics in the fresh produce trade and discuss solutions with international experts.

Future Lab

Get to know brand new and innovative products, ground-breaking solutions and pioneering concepts in compact sessions.

In addition to other global changes, climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time and also has an influence on the international fruit and vegetable business. Changing weather and vegetation conditions place new demands on production, technology, water supply or seeds. In the Future Lab, many of these topics are up for discussion in a narrower or broader context.

Digital solutions, new fresh products, state-of-the-art technology, long-term projects and future-oriented concepts - exhibitors and trade visitors can experience all this in eight half-hour sessions at the Future Lab. Solutions that will stimulate the market in a few years or contribute significantly to improvements and optimisations along the entire supply chain.

Logistics Hub

Immerse yourself in the current top issues from the entire logistics chain.

The fresh fruit and vegetable market is a global business. Accordingly, international refrigerated logistics also play a central role.

Experience what is necessary and possible in logistics: In sea freight, road freight as well as air freight - and even in rail transport, which has received so little attention for so long. The right interaction in global refrigerated logistics is what counts.
