SANA 2016 continues to grow. Naturally.

sana 2016

The 28th International Exhibition of Organic and Natural Products is taking shape. Scheduled from Friday 9th to Monday 12th September, at the Bologna Trade Fair, a revamped SANA is getting ready to welcome even more exhibitors and visitors.

Bio Eco Actual will be present in Sana, promoting our work in Spain and promoting the Guide “Your Spanish Organic Food Partners 2016”.

This international showcase of Italian organic food and products will cover over 50,000 sqm – a 30% increase on 2015 – occupying Halls 25, 26, 29, 30 and 36 in Bologna Trade Fair’s grounds.

The new exhibition layout will include the three main sectors, now even more diversified: Organic Food spanning the whole food sector, Natural Personal Care and Organic Products, including the health and wellbeing sections, and Green Lifestyle, other natural products such as fabrics, products and accessories for the home, leisure and “green” lifestyles.

Meeting with increasing interest from international operators, SANA, Italy’s premier sector tradeshow, will offer professionals and members of the general public a broad overview of what’s new in the world of natural and organic products and services.

The many newcomer exhibitors as well as the presence of major sector players continue the very positive trend seen during the 2015 edition, with 45,000 visitors, more than 40% more foreign buyers from some 21 countries, and 25% more exhibitors.

The tradeshow will be flanked by a broad raft of sidecar events – both in and outside the trade fair grounds – attracting large numbers of sector operators and buyers from both Italy and elsewhere. As well as sectorspecific meetings for professionals, there will be workshops and theme-focused conferences. The previous edition of SANA saw 4,000 B2B meetings and 65 seminars and meetings attended by over 6,000 participants. Other networking opportunities will be offered by SANA NOVITÀ – a dedicated area where exhibiting companies can present their latest innovations – and SANA CITY, a rich and varied programme of green events in and around Bologna’s old town centre during the days of the tradeshow.

“The growth of SANA, which we like to see as a long-term trend, reflects Italian consumer attitudes that are increasingly attentive to the ingredients, composition and type of foods, cosmetics and general products they consume. Figures show that the organic and natural products sector is growing steadily and with it, sectorspecific tradeshows”, reports SANA organiser, BolognaFiere
