Profood Propack and Agbiz Exhibition, organised by the Sri Lanka Food Processors Association (SLFPA) together with Lanka Exhibition and Conference Services (LECS), was formally announced last week.
The most awaited Food Industry Show is scheduled to take place from 23 to 25 August at the Sirimavo Bandaranaike Exhibition and Convention Centre at BMICH Colombo. SLFPA’s commitment to foster Food Industry advancement and drive economic growth in Sri Lanka through this Exhibition is well known over the years. The event acts as the catalyst in bringing together Food Industry leaders, multiple stakeholders, and decision makers in agri based businesses, food processing industries, packaging and all service providers to the food industry.
Commenting on the event, the Profood, Propack and AgBiz 2024 Organising Committee Chairman Vasantha Chandrapala noted, “The upcoming exhibition promises to be an exceptional gathering of industry leaders and innovators and food science graduates. Our commitment remains unwavering in facilitating knowledge exchange, showcasing technological innovations, and facilitating strategic partnerships within the sector. We are dedicated to delivering an event that exceeds expectations and propels the industry towards greater heights, comparable with international food shows.”
Moreover, the Sri Lanka Food Processors Association President Elect Thusith Wijesinghe said, “As we approach the 21st successive year of this vibrant exhibition, we recognise its pivotal role in driving growth and sustainability within the agri and food sectors. The platform serves as a catalyst for professionals to explore cutting-edge technologies, showcase innovative products and processors and enhance competitiveness on a global scale.”
The exhibition offers numerous opportunities for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to display and promote their products. SMEs play a vital role in the industry’s growth, and this event enables them to gain exposure, build relationships, and explore potential collaborations with key stakeholders. It will feature a wide range of products, services, and innovations related to agriculture, processed food and beverage, and packaging.
Exhibiting at the Profood Propack and Agbiz 2024 offers unparalleled opportunities to SMEs to expand their reach, enhance brand visibility, and forge strategic partnerships by engaging with key stakeholders and accessing a pool of buyers and investors.
The Profood Propack and Agbiz Exhibition welcomes participants from all allied industries and the public. Buyers of supermarkets, hotels and catering institutions and exporters are welcome.
Profood Propack and Agbiz Exhibition is proudly endorsed and supported by the Ministry of Industries, the National Agribusiness Council, and the Institute of Food Science and Technology Sri Lanka.
