foodpro exhibition manager, Peter Petherick, explained, “International exhibitors are an important part of foodpro because they showcase innovations, new products and technological advances from around the globe.

“Professionals in the food manufacturing industry really can’t afford to miss out on foodpro 2014. It’s the one chance to discover future products and innovations and meet the companies and suppliers who are setting new trends and industry advancements from around the world,” Petherick said.
