Australia’s large
st food manufacturing event starts this Sunday in Melbourne with more than 10,000 visitors expected to attend.
The event will run from 22 June to 25 June and will be divided into four key precincts; Food Science & Technology, Packaging, Processing Machinery and Plant Equipment.
Foodpro Exhibition manager Peter Petherick said visitor registrations are already promising a strong event, and exhibition space at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre have been sold out for over six weeks, with a handful of companies even on a waiting list to exhibit.
“Australian food manufacturers know that an exhibition of this magnitude only comes along once every three years: this year’s event promises to bring the latest products, innovative ideas and technological advances from around the world straight to their home turf,” Petherick said.
Two new additions to foodpro include free educational seminars and workshops for attendees and the Victorian Government’s Business Lounge, where businesses interested in doing business in the host state can access Government education and support.
The seminars which run over two days (Monday and Tuesday) cover a range of topics including; exporting within the dairy industry, research and development, marketing fresh ready-made meals, the process of paddock to plate and how technology can help.
Presenters include: Charles McElhone, Group Manager – Trade and Industry Strategy, Dairy Australia, Dairy Industry Association of Australia; Phil Clarke, Deputy Chief of Operations, CSIRO; and Paul McGuire, Marketing Manager Darfresh and Ready Meals, Sealed Air.
All seminar sessions are 40 minutes and will include question and answer time at the end, with the exception of the first session on Monday, which will be 90 minutes.
