When you are rated as the No.1 food manufacturing trade show in Australasia, you have to keep your standards soaring. So foodpro 2014 is the showcase for high calibre international manufacturers like Vemag, Multivac and Devro; and leading agents, Globus, Nuplex Specialties, Pacific Food Machinery and CBS Foodtech.

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.

“foodpro follows two of the largest triennial trade events in Germany; interpack, a packaging event, and IFFA, a meat industry event, and many of the latest products and innovations from those two events are circulated at foodpro.

“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.

foodpro 2014 will run from Sunday 22 June to Wednesday 25 June at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, Southbank. Everything you need to know to register is here.
