Vitafoods Europe 2024 results
Vitafoods Europe celebrated its final edition in Geneva - its home of 26 years - before the much anticipated relocation to Barcelona in 2025. Connecting nutraceutical suppliers with international buyers for yet another successful event edition.
Vitafoods Europe 2024 was the biggest edition in its 26-year history, with a record 70,000 square metres of exhibition space. The event welcomed over 19,000 attendees from over 162 countries to make new connections with businesses across the supply chain. The perfect way to bid a fond farewell to Geneva!
"It has been the greatest pleasure to welcome everyone back to connect, learn and inspire in Geneva for the final time before Vitafoods Europe moves to Barcelona in 2025. The show floor was buzzing with anticipation for what’s next, but there was also a huge sense of celebration for how much the industry has achieved since the very first Vitafoods Europe all those years ago. We’re delighted that our last event in Geneva has been our biggest and best yet ”
