"Food & Drink Expo enables retail buyers to meet and negotiate with hundreds of suppliers all in one place," said Jack Halliday, group sales manager for Food & Drink Expo. "Visitors will be able to do a year's product sourcing all in one day at the UK's most vibrant food and drink trade show, while at the same time picking up new ideas from experts to help them move their own businesses forward."

A showcase for the very latest developments in food and drink products, Food & Drink Expo will run simultaneously with seven other shows:  Foodex, Baking Industry Exhibition, Convenience Retailing Show, International Forecourt & Fuel Equipment Show, Café+, Off Licence Show and Food & Drink Logistics Show.

"By holding such a large range of key exhibitions at the same time and in the same place we are able to offer visitors from the retail sector a unique overview of the entire food and drink supply chain. Food & Drink Expo really is the only event for the whole of the food and drink industry. Make sure you don't miss out."
