NATEXPO 2021 concludes with an excellent result for an exceptional edition. After an atypical period, the event allowed organic industry players to meet in person in the largest hall of the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Center reserved for the occasion: Hall 6. More than 15,500 visitors traveled from all over France and many countries around the world to discover all the latest organic news during these last 3 days, from October 24 to 26. Over 35,000 m2, 1200 stands and pavilions representing 2500 exhibitors and brands – including many startups – gathered to present their activities and innovations to buyers and decision-makers in the sector. More than 150 conferences also took place to decipher the new trends of a market resolutely in line with consumer expectations and which should reach a turnover of 20 billion euros by 2027 in France according to La Maison de la Bio (excluding textiles).
Patricia Berthomier-Massip, President of SPAS Organisation, the company organizing NATEXPO, emphasizes: "We are proud to have held firm to organize this show, which marks the great reunion of organic players after the Covid crisis. It is a real success for us to see the enthusiasm of the exhibitors and visitors who took real pleasure in reconnecting in a concrete way to exchange ideas and build constructive relationships. These meetings are essential to meet consumer expectations in terms of organic products, in all areas. Conviviality is one of the key words of this edition, which will allow professionals to continue developing their activities in a sector with very strong growth potential. We look forward to seeing them again for our next edition, in September in Lyon!"
