In 2019, the UK market saw a huge increase in product development, with nearly 25% of all new products being labelled as vegan. This trend has not only continued, but has since increased, driven primarily by the ever more conscious and flexitarian consumer. This show section is dedicated to highlighting the exciting and extensive range of plant-based and vegan products in the market.

Launched in partnership with The Vegan Society, we will provide a platform for suppliers to showcase their products, provide tastings of exciting new flavours and innovative meat-free alternatives, and network with buyers searching for unique, inspiring plant-based & vegan products to keep their business ahead of the curve.

Increase the visibility of your vegan products, with 30 years of expertise of the Vegan Society’s Vegan Trademark. To find out more on how to apply, click here.

SALES BROCHURE

Our first time at IFE, it's been absolutely amazing. We weren't sure what to expect but there's been really good footfall, the quality of people who've been by our stand has been fantastic, it's opened up some channels that we were hoping for but also some completely new ones as well. We'll definitely be back.

Vidrate
We've been delighted with the show, it's our first show for two and a half years and there have been loads of visitors to our stand and the stand position was brilliant. We've enjoyed being in the Speciality Food section among brands similar to ourselves.

Stag Bakeries
It's the first time we've exhibited here at IFE. It's definitely surpassed our expectations, we've met some great distributors/retailers/wholesalers and a really interesting mix of people from the UK and abroad. We had some objectives for the event and we've over-achieved those so we're very pleased with the event and we're looking forward to coming back next year.

The Refreshing Drinks Company
The show has been great, we've met lots of buyers from different sectors, from distributors to people who own shops and cafes and bakeries to chefs. We've made a lot of contacts and we're excited to follow up over the coming days.

Definite Chocolate
We've been really happy with the show, it's been really well orgnised and the public have been very interested in our product, and it's a serious show and brings good results. It's been a good investment of our money and we'll be returning next year.

Louisa's Honey
IFE was a fantastic event for us to connect with significant buyers not just in the UK but also in international markets. We're already engaged in deep discussions with those that we met at IFE. I would strongly recommend IFE to any F&B business looking to expand their distribution in the UK and abroad.

Better Nature
IFE 2022 was one of the best trade shows that we have exhibited at. The number, variety, and quality of the leads that we generated surpassed all expectations; now the real work starts. You hope that you will pick up one or two quality customers from a trade show but we are confident that we will exceed this number several times over. We had no hesitation in booking for IFE 2023.

Capreolus Fine Foods
We've really enjoyed being at the show for the past three days. it's been awesome to be here and be in touch with some packaging guys and some retailers. It's fabulous to connect with people from so many different industries and to be exploring further industries in export and in the UK. We've had a great location, everyone's been really helpful, it's been awesome.

COOK
IFE was a fantastic event. With so many producers from around the world exhibiting, there was a real buzz about the place. For Greenypeeps, as a new-to-market brand, the show was a fantastic platform to meet people from every aspect of the food and drink ecosystem: multiples and group buyers, international distributors, independent hospitality and retail owners and consultants and potential brand partners. We had a great time and were incredibly encouraged to receive such a strong reaction from the great and the good in the industry.

Greenypeeps
As first time exhibitors we were really excited to be here, we've had an overwhelming response and met loads of wonderful people from the UK and overseas. Lots of excitement around our drink and lots of positive feedback and we hope to exhibit again next year.
