Accompanying programme
 
Rich, fascinating, useful and professional - this is how we can describe the programme during the four exhibition days at Inter Expo Center. We kick off with the national qualification for the most prestigious Bocuse d'Or chef competition. The Bulgarian association of chefs will organise the GastronomiX culinary event. This year will be marked by the first International Pizza Championship - the event promises to be fascinating for every visitor. In addition to the professional competitions of the exhibitions, there will also be a forum on Bulgarian organic products under the Bulgarian Presidency of the EU Council, organised by the Bulgarian Organic Products Association. The conference Kosher & Halal Certifications: a passport to export, organised by the Greek International Business Association, will be extremely useful for all professionals involved in the production and marketing of kosher and halal products. The youngest visitors will be invited to tasting for children under the motto 'Healthy and strong since childhood', organised by the Union of Fruit and Vegetable Processors. The Barista championship will be held for coffee lovers, and specialists of the Baristo University and Rancilio will showcase their skills. Such a major event cannot do without handing awards to its participants. This will happen at Prize Pack - the National Contest for Best Packaging and the Gold Medal with Diploma Contest for quality and original market products and/or additives.
