Where it all begins, this is the motto of Natexpo.
The villages, real concentrates of innovations, in which 1 exhibitor out of 5 takes part, are the undeniable proof of this.
 
Through its 6 Villages, veritable showcases for organic innovations, Natexpo gives young shoots the opportunity to find their place in this constantly evolving market.
 

 

 

  • Organic Food and Wine Incubator

The Organic Incubator is a space dedicated to support small firms which are the very essence of the organic sector. Discover, among other products, wines and spirits produced through organic farming and biodynamics.

It serves as a springboard for small firms, helping them to exhibit at Natexpo through preferential stand prices*. 

It provides a unique opportunity to meet and exchange with French and international players from the organic sector, in a friendly and professional atmosphere.

We loved the “startup” and “innovation” spirit of the Natexpo incubator. The atmosphere between young exhibitors was very friendly and stimulating. We found that this area attracted a lot of people looking for innovation.

  • The Lab

The Lab is an exhibition and pitches areas for companies of circular economy and technological eco-innovations

The organic market is booming and consumers are more and more asking for good, healthy and local products.
Beyond the product, they are also very receptive to ecological intiatives, eco-friendly processes and to the commitment of the companies they trust.

Waste management and recovery, zero waste, product life cycle analysis, use of renewable resources and recyclable materials, reduction of carbon emissions, energy transition, local sourcing, logistics sustainable consumption, promotion of producing regions, seasonal products, etc., are key topics for the B2B2C landscape – even more for the organic secteur stakeholders.

This is why Natexpo chose to offer an opportunity for those companies to highlight their innovative approach and products, producing added value to the organic sector and its consumers and support brands and manufacturers in their CSR strategy.
