Anuga in Cologne from 9 to 13 October 2021
Ten months before the event begins, very good registration figures have been recorded for the coming Anuga in Cologne from 9 to 13 October 2021. After the expiry of the early bird phase, the largest trade fair for food and beverages worldwide has already recorded a similar number of bookings as for the previous event. For the successful Anuga concept "10 trade shows under one roof" this means that eight of the ten trade shows are already completely fully booked now. More applications have been currently received than can be accommodated on the surfaces available. Overall, exhibitors from 83 countries have registered so far. Furthermore, Anuga 2021 is treading new paths and will be staged as a hybrid format for the first time. Accordingly, the usual physical trade fair will be additionally enhanced by the digital element Anuga@home. This format ensures that industry participants from around the world – exhibitors, trade visitors and the trade press – can exchange ideas live in Cologne or digitally via a newly developed platform and inform themselves about important industry topics." The concrete form will evolve over the next months.

"These developments are making us feel very positive and confirm the central significance Anuga plays as the international industry meeting point of the year for the food and beverage industry. The current coverage on the vaccinations is also giving us confidence that Anuga will take place in a physical form in 2021. Naturally, we will continue to anticipate all eventualities and will plan the trade fair under Corona conditions with the aid of our hygiene and safety concept #B-safe4Business, i.e. aisles double the width and minimum distances of 1.5 m. Even if the coming Anuga will no doubt take on a slightly different appearance compared to the previous years, the good booking status is proving that the industry wants a physical trade fair and that the need for a personal exchange and the desire for product innovations is greater than ever. A digital format is important, can however at the most constitute an enhancement rather than an adequate replacement," explained Stefanie Mauritz, Director Anuga.

Food safety at Anuga FoodTec

How can the safety of food be guaranteed in the context of international chain stores and the at the same time growing need for transparency regarding the origin and processing? This question is one of the key themes at this year’s Anuga FoodTec. To minimise the consumer protection risks and guarantee the authenticity of the foodstuffs, the international supplier fair for the food and beverage industry provides information on the latest technologies and services. The agenda focuses on trends and the residue analytics process as well as on current approaches for the prevention of food fraud. Experts estimate that around ten percent of the food and raw materials traded worldwide are affected by food fraud. The most frequently counterfeited foodstuffs are olive oil, honey, milk, fish as well as adulterated spice and nut mixtures. (more…)
