Prodeca opens the call for Catalan companies to join the Catalan Food Business Forum 2025

Prodeca has opened the call for Catalan companies to take part in the Catalan Food Business Forum 2025, the Catalan agri-food sector's leading meeting with international buyers, held on 4 and 5 June in Barcelona. The event brings together three sector trade meetings: Meat Business Forum, devoted to meat products; Fine Food Business Forum, focused on gourmet and multiproduct items; and Wine Business Forum, specialising in wines and spirits.

With the aim of boosting the international presence of Catalan companies, the Catalan Food Business Forum 2025 will feature a programme of B2B meetings with international buyers from strategic markets outside the European Union. This edition will involve companies from 23 countries such as the United States, Japan, Canada, Brazil, Mexico, South Korea, the United Kingdom and Australia, among others.

An opportunity for Catalan companies

The The Catalan Food Business Forum is a strategic business platform where agri-food companies can make contact with importers, distributors and key operators in international markets. In the last edition, there were more than 3,500 B2B meetings, opening up new commercial and expansion opportunities for the participating companies.

Catalan companies interested in taking part in this edition can now register and apply to join the sector meetings according to their profile and products. Once accepted, they will receive an agenda of one-to-one meetings with the importers and distributors interested in their sector and products. The meetings will take place in designated spaces and will last 20 minutes. 

The Catalan Food Business Forum 2025 takes place in a particularly significant year for Catalonia's culinary and agri-food sector, as the region has been named World Region of Gastronomy 2025. It is the first European region to receive this distinction, consolidating the country as a world benchmark in innovation, sustainability and the promotion of its quality agri-food products, strengthening the link between gastronomy, territory and local production.

A key sector for the Catalan economy

The agri-food sector is the largest in the Catalan economy and one of its most dynamic exporters. Year after year its export volume and value keep growing, consolidating Catalonia as a strategic hub in the international market. Its logistics network can reach 400 million consumers in under 48 hours, and its geostrategic position enables efficient intercontinental connections with Asia and the Americas as well as optimal distribution in Europe and Africa.
