POLFISH Gdansk 2024: About
POLFISH Gdansk 2024, Poland’s only and one of Europe’s largest specialized seafood industry fairs, will be held yet again at the AMBEREXPO Exhibition & Convention Centre, Gdansk, alongside FOODEXPO, Northern Poland’s largest food industry fair. The synergy of these two industry projects, which take place every two years, makes it possible to present a wider offer at a single time and place. The coming edition of the event (11 – 13 September, 2023) is a response to the interest and demand of the consumers, who know the need to get closer to nature, to take care of their health and who look for unique products.
Local & Global:
This year’s Fairs have a confirmed participation from Polish seafood producers and importers. Next to traditional fresh, frozen, canned, smoked and marinated products, there will be deli and convenience seafood. The events will feature an offer of premium canned wild bluefin tuna, caught using the traditional ALMADRABA tuna fishing method, alongside products with no preservatives, sweeteners or colour additives (including herring in aspic and herring in tomato sauce).
In aquaculture, there will be fish farming companies, with the saltwater sea bream or sea bass, and with the freshwater carp, trout and more. There will be feed manufacturers, systems for fish storage and transport, and fish farming equipment.
You will see an extensive offering from manufacturers and distributors of beverages, condiments, flour, confectionery, soup and wine. The dairy sector (the Milky Revue Fair) will feature Poland’s leading dairy plants and cooperatives. Owing to the long-standing partnership and support of the National Association of Dairy Cooperatives, the participation of dairy manufacturers and processing companies is co-funded under the Milk Promotion Fund.
Next to seafood, dairy, grain and diet products, there will be regional products from small and medium-sized companies, produce from organic farms, local processing plants, fish farms and FLAGs.
