10 food companies from the Maresme at the International Food Trade Show Sial Paris 2016
10 food companies from the Maresme region will visit Sial Paris 2016, from 16 to 20 October . All of them are part of the programme ‘Let’s export the Maresme food sector to France’. Promoted by the Consell Comarcal, and implemented by Barcelona Export, the project is part of the CCM’s line of action to help Maresme companies to open up markets in France.
Why Sial Paris 2016?
SIAL Paris 2016 is one of the most important international trade shows in the food sector, held in Paris, France. This event brings together food industry professionals from around the world, including producers, distributors, and buyers, providing a platform for innovation and the exchange of ideas. At Sial Paris 2016, a wide variety of food products are presented, from fresh food to processed products, and conferences and workshops on market trends and sustainability are held. It is an excellent opportunity for companies to showcase their products and establish business contacts.
Why France?
Precisely because of the proximity and the characteristics of the products produced by each of these ten entrepreneurs, the French market was chosen as the market for the expansion of these companies.
Exporting food products to France can be an excellent opportunity for several reasons. Firstly, France is known for its rich gastronomic culture and its appreciation of food quality. This means that there is a potential market for high quality, innovative or unique food products.
In addition, France’s geographical location in Europe facilitates access to other European markets, which can further expand business opportunities. Also, the country has a well-developed infrastructure for product distribution and marketing, which can facilitate the export process.
Finally, if the product has characteristics that are in line with current trends, such as being organic, sustainable or gourmet, it can capture the attention of French consumers, who increasingly value these aspects. In short, exporting to France can open many doors and be a great strategy for growth in the European market.
Mission to Sial Paris 2016
The ten companies are travelling to Sial Paris 2016 as visitors and with an agenda of professional interviews already established and defined according to each product. In all these aspects they have received advice and support from Barcelona Export, specialists in the French-speaking food market.
