From 17 to 19 November 2026, Warsaw will become an international meeting point for the food and beverage industry.

Global Food Expo 2026, held at Ptak Warsaw Expo, will bring together food producers, distributors, retailers, HoReCa professionals, technology providers and industry experts from Poland and abroad.

Global Food Expo is an international B2B platform dedicated to the food industry and its rapidly evolving market. The event creates an opportunity to discover new products, explore current consumer and technology trends, establish business relationships and exchange knowledge with professionals representing different areas of the food sector.

The exhibition will cover a broad spectrum of the industry, including frozen and processed food, delicatessen products, fresh food and agricultural products, beverages, ingredients, additives and flavourings, as well as solutions for food production, processing and professional gastronomy. Packaging, marketing, logistics, distribution, IT solutions and technologies supporting the foodservice sector will also form an important part of the exhibition.

A meeting place for the entire food industry

Global Food Expo is designed to connect manufacturers and suppliers directly with professional buyers and business partners. Among the visitors will be representatives of retail chains and supermarkets, food wholesalers, FMCG distributors, restaurateurs, chefs, hoteliers and HoReCa operators, as well as food technologists, R&D specialists, investors, industry organisations and representatives of the media.

This diverse professional audience makes the event a valuable platform for companies looking to enter new markets, strengthen their distribution networks, present innovative products and solutions, and develop international business contacts.

The exhibition will feature companies representing both established and emerging areas of the food industry. These include manufacturers of processed, fresh and functional foods, beverage producers, suppliers of ingredients and additives, food-tech companies, alternative protein producers, packaging and industrial equipment suppliers, as well as logistics, cold-chain, IT, ERP and traceability solution providers.

Innovation, technology and changing consumer expectations

The food industry is undergoing significant transformation, driven by changing consumer preferences, sustainability, digitalisation, automation and the growing demand for convenient and high-quality products. Global Food Expo provides a space where companies can present solutions responding to these changes and discuss the directions in which the international food market is developing.

The event will combine the exhibition with a programme of industry conferences and expert meetings. Topics will include food trends and technologies, increasingly conscious consumer choices and developments shaping the future of the sector. The programme will also feature the Organic Food Forum and meetings organised with industry organisations.

For visitors, the three-day event will therefore be not only an opportunity to discover products and technologies but also a platform for gaining knowledge, exchanging experience and discussing current challenges facing the food industry.

International business opportunities in Warsaw

The international character of Global Food Expo creates favourable conditions for developing cross-border cooperation between producers, distributors, technology providers and buyers. Warsaw’s location in Central and Eastern Europe also makes the event an important meeting point for companies interested in expanding their activities in the Polish and wider European markets.

Global Food Expo 2026 will be held alongside other specialised trade fairs at Ptak Warsaw Expo, including events dedicated to organic food, food technologies, food and beverage packaging and related sectors. This combination creates additional opportunities for professional visitors to discover solutions covering different stages of the food industry’s value chain.

Global Food Expo 2026 will take place on 17-19 November 2026 at Ptak Warsaw Expo in Warsaw, Poland. The event invites food industry professionals, manufacturers, distributors, buyers, HoReCa representatives, technology providers and industry organisations to meet, discover new solutions and build international business relationships.
