ASIA FRUIT LOGISTICA moves to a new location

ASIA FRUIT LOGISTICA moves to a new location in Hong Kong!

Hong Kong, 25 October 2011: Due to its increasing popularity and tremendous growth over the last five years, Asia’s leading fresh produce trade show event will be moving to a new state-of-the-art exhibition centre from 2012.

AsiaWorld-Expo is conveniently located next to the Hong Kong International Airport and has excellent transport links to Hong Kong city centre, which is 25 minutes by train, and to key cities in mainland China.

Looking to the future, the venue is a natural progression for ASIA FRUIT LOGISTICA and Asiafruit Congress. It allows both events to continue growing organically alongside the booming Asian fresh produce market, whilst also providing exhibitors and visitors with all the facilities and services needed to accommodate this growth.

“Now more than ever, the fresh produce business in Asia is really starting to pick up momentum, and will continue to develop as a most attractive market for fresh fruits and vegetables,” says Gérald Lamusse, managing director of event organiser Global Produce Events GmbH.

ASIA FRUIT LOGISTICA 2011 saw 332 exhibitors from 33 different countries showcasing their products and services – an increase of 10 per cent on last year and an incredible 186 per cent growth compared to 2007.

The show also attracted a third more visitors than the previous year - 5,358 visitors from 63 different countries were looking to source the best the market had to offer.
