Central South Food & Drink Trade EXPO 2027 – Exhibitors
Your personal introduction to dozens of food, drink, hospitality and retail buyers and influencers
The Central South Food & Drink Trade EXPO is an exciting opportunity for you, as a regional producer to meet with hundreds of influential food, drink, hospitality and retail buyers in a showcase of Central South produce.
It’s an opportunity to meet face-to-face with buyers, to chat with them, to share your story, and most importantly for them to see and taste your produce.
Our region is one of the UK’s leading foodie destinations, with its success driven in no small part by you – our network of amazing regional producers. We know you’re passionate about quality, locality, provenance, sustainability, and ethical practices – and these are increasingly the drivers for buying decisions for supermarkets, farm shops, eateries, chefs, hotels and delis.
The EXPO is a one-location event designed to make introductions simple, to provide an opportunity for you to foster relationships, and of course to secure commercial contracts that are right for your business.
Exhibitors will showcase their own products with space around their stand for your display and tastings.
Contact details and your logo are listed on the Business South website along with a link to your own site and an EXPO social media design for you to share on our own platforms.
Let us have a social media video about your produce and we’ll also share that as part of our own pre-event social campaigns, and will include producers in as much campaign marketing and comms as possible.
Our Taste of the Central South awards recognise and celebrate the very best food and drink producers in the Central South region. Exhibitors will have a chance to vye for an array of awards that cover everything from the best brand and packaging to passion behind the product and the taste of the region.
