27 March 2021
The application period is open for
participation in
Fruit Attraction 2021, which will be held in person from 5 to 7 October in Madrid. The three-day industry reunion will once again make the fair the world epicentre of fresh product marketing, where innovation, quality and diversity are the core mantras of operators and retailers from all over the world when planning their campaigns at a key time like early October. Starting in April an entire investment and action plan is put in motion to guarantee the presence of the major demand groups from all over Europe and third countries, including the biggest International Guest Programme in the history of Fruit Attraction.
