Biggest West African Food & Drink Trade Fair Returns 14 – 16 June At Landmark Centre, Lagos
The Landmark Centre on Victoria Island, Lagos, southwest Nigeria, will come alive once again as the Food & Beverage West Africa, the largest F&B trade show across sub-Saharan Africa, returns in a little of two weeks’ time.
P.M. EXPRESS can report that running from Tuesday 14th to Thursday 16th June, FAB West Africa has more than 220 exhibitors from five continents ready to showcase their services and products at the event.
Because of the demand for the show, the organisers, BtoB Events, have expanded the exhibition floor space, meaning the FAB West Africa will be the biggest food and beverage fair to ever take place on Nigerian soil.
With the international flavour, the event will no doubt place a real focus on promoting Nigerian food and beverage products while visitors will have an opportunity to find out about the latest local and international food and drink developments and to sample products being launched in Nigeria and the region.
The Managing Director of BtoB Events. Jamie Hill recalled that the success of the 2021 Fair has given them the motivation to prepare very well for this year’s event.
He said: “After the huge success of FAB West Africa 2021, I cannot wait to bring the largest edition of the Food and Beverage West Africa exhibition back to Nigeria.
“This exhibition will be the first exhibition to utilise the new third hall at the Landmark Centre, perhaps making it the largest food and beverage exhibition on the African continent.
“This year’s exhibition has seen an incredible increase in demand for exhibition space and will host exhibitors from across 40 countries and five continents. The previous edition back in September 2021 was a huge success, despite certain COVID-12 and travel restrictions.
“So for 2022, and the first edition since international travel was relaxed, we have seen a surge in demand for exhibition space. This exhibition will sell out so should you want to exhibit, get in touch today.”
