Vitafoods Europe (12 to 14 May 2020, Palexpo, Geneva/Switzerland) is the leading buying and sourcing event for the global nutraceuticals industry. It is returning once again, to provide a key platform for the entire nutraceutical supply chain to find practical business solutions and discuss its greatest opportunities and challenges.

As the meeting place for the nutraceutical industry, Vitafoods Europe will continue to lead the way in championing sustainability on the global nutraceutical stage. As part of its focus on championing best practice, the event will be debuting the Vitafoods Insights stage, which will feature three days of free sessions addressing five macro issues that affect multiple areas across the supply chain. With topics such as sustainability and traceability, diversity and inclusion as well as marketing to the end consumer, the Vitafoods Insights stage will be an opportunity for the world’s leading nutraceutical, supplement and functional food industry experts to share knowledge and help the global industry connect, develop and progress.

Other highlights will be a series of interactive zones, including the New Ingredients Theatre, Sustainability Corner and – new for 2020 – the Start-up Pavilion and Plant-based Bar. Presenting the latest innovations in the sector, the Plant-based Bar will showcase consumer insights on the growing demand for plant-based food, in line with the trend towards products that promote both a sustainable supply chain and a healthy lifestyle.

The Vitafoods Europe Conference will run alongside the exhibition, giving delegates the chance to discuss and debate the latest trends and research. Eight summits have so far been confirmed, with topics including nootropics, sports nutrition, gut health and CBD.
