We started this year in Korea very actively. New project participants, new commercial partners, and even two exhibitions in the year’s first half. A few weeks ago Allive Europe, Acorus Calamus, Svencioniu Herbal Factory, Startuper’s Smoothies and Kauno Grūdai returned from the biggest exhibition in South Korea, SeoulFood Expo.
During the 3-day event, the total number of visitors was around 54,757 pax according to the official count from the organizer. 31.8% of them were buyers / businesses.The total visitors to our booth was estimated to be around 1,000 pax. The majority of the visitors of the fair were general public of the age group between 20-40s, with great interest in wines and spirits. Out of all the buyers / businesses, 31.8% were distirbutors, being the largest group. HORECA buyers consisted 28.5% of all the business visitors, ranking the second majority of all buyers / businesses.325 businesses exhibited this year in 450 booths, from 24 countries. The Majority of the exhibitiors were small and medium-sized enterprises and small business owners presenting local and international products.
