What the fair covers

World trade fair for certified organic food, beverages and natural products, held with the Vivaness natural cosmetics show in Nuremberg. That shapes both the exhibitor mix and the questions worth preparing before you arrive.

Dates, venue and getting there

The fair runs from 16 February to 19 February 2027 at Exhibition Centre Nuremberg in Nuremberg. It runs for 4 days, which is usually enough to cover several product areas without rushing. German exhibition grounds are generally connected to the rail network and run to a reliable schedule. Hotel capacity in the host city fills during the largest fairs, and staying in a nearby town with a direct train is a common and practical solution.

Planning your visit

Food fairs are tasting events as much as trading ones, and that is the reason to attend in person. Specification sheets do not tell you how a product actually tastes, how consistent the batch is, or how it holds up in the packaging it will ship in. Most buyers work through a shortlist of halls, sample steadily, and use the days to reduce a long supplier list to the few worth pursuing seriously. For BIOFACH, that means preparing ahead of the February dates and arriving with a target list of stands.

Language and interpreting support

Exhibitors at major European fairs generally handle English well, particularly at international events. Language support becomes more relevant with smaller regional manufacturers, where technical staff may be more comfortable in the local language than the sales team suggests. An interpreter already working in Nuremberg saves further time simply by knowing the venue and how to move around it.

After the fair

Food sourcing carries requirements that go beyond price and taste. Shelf life, labelling, certification and import documentation all have to line up with your own market before a product can be sold there, and those rules differ by country. Buyers routinely check certification status and arrange inspection on first shipments, since consistency between the sample and the production batch is the usual point of failure.
