WE WELCOME 1,500+ SUPPLIERS FROM ACROSS THE FOOD & DRINK SECTOR

It's the first time we've exhibited here at IFE. It's definitely surpassed our expectations, we've met some great distributors/retailers/wholesalers and a really interesting mix of people from the UK and abroad. We had some objectives for the event and we've over-achieved those so we're very pleased with the event and we're looking forward to coming back next year.

The Refreshing Drinks Company
IFE 2022 was one of the best trade shows that we have exhibited at. The number, variety, and quality of the leads that we generated surpassed all expectations; now the real work starts. You hope that you will pick up one or two quality customers from a trade show but we are confident that we will exceed this number several times over. We had no hesitation in booking for IFE 2023.

Capreolus Fine Foods
We've really enjoyed being at the show for the past three days. it's been awesome to be here and be in touch with some packaging guys and some retailers. It's fabulous to connect with people from so many different industries and to be exploring further industries in export and in the UK. We've had a great location, everyone's been really helpful, it's been awesome.
