OPPORTUNITY FOR ARTISAN

Space is selling fast for the 2019 Foodfirst Expo, especially in Inspire+, an innovative section of the trade show reserved for smaller, artisanal producers to present their products. Held on Monday 11 and Tuesday 12 March at the ASB Showgrounds in Auckland, the 2019 Foodfirst Expo will gather passionate suppliers and committed buyers under one roof, and Inspire+ will allow smaller producers to put their products in front of a strictly trade-only audience. Exhibitors at the last show included Hawke’s Bay Brewing, Kapiti Artisan Bakehouse, Banjo Brews Kombucha and The Larder Project. 2019 edition of the Foodfirst Expo will be three times the size of the 2018 edition, extending the opportunity to more local producers.
