FRUIT ATTRACTION 2022

PRODECA - Ministry of Climate Action, Food and Rural Agenda is organising the participation of fruit and vegetable sector companies at the FRUIT ATTRACTION 2022 trade fair to be held in Madrid from 4 to 6 October.

TRADE FAIR DETAILS

This is the 15th edition of this international fruit and vegetable trade fair, a major commercial platform which over three days fosters intense business relationships among companies looking to boost their promotional activity with national and international distribution channels.

In 2021 this fair featured 1,300 exhibitors and was attended by more than 65,000 trade visitors from 110 countries.

ORGANISATION OF THE STAND

Under the Catalonia umbrella, participating Catalan companies will have two types of participation available.

• Option A: On the one hand, as usual, there is the option of your own "turnkey stand" space, of 16 m² approximately (4 m x 4 m) with storage, table, chairs, counter and display unit.
  For this type of participation company signage and lettering will be uniform across all stands. Each exhibitor will have their logo, company name and a product image. Within its own space, the company may use promotional material, provided this does not alter the overall look of the stand.
  If an exhibitor needs furniture, design or services not covered by the terms of the call, they must bear the cost (fridges are at the companies' expense).
  Exhibitors requesting a double space will have the stand items duplicated.
  Each exhibiting company will be listed in the official fair catalogue + LIVE CONNECT 
   
• Option B: The option of bare floor space. In this case the company must arrange and pay for its stand design with the supplier of its choice. In addition, the build levy, compulsory insurance, fair catalogue listing, electricity and water consumption and any other associated costs are at the exhibiting company's expense and must be arranged directly with the fair organisers.
  The stand of a company choosing this option must respect  the overhead signage of the Catalonia Pavilion. Overhead elements may be placed only below the Catalonia signage. Prodeca will coordinate the various builds so that all participation options can be combined correctly, and will give the relevant instructions to harmonise adjoining spaces.

All participating companies, whatever their type of participation, will have access to a Business Centre area with internet-connected computers, printer, photocopier and scanner, as well as a permanent self-service coffee and water area.

Prodeca staff will support exhibitors before and during the fair.
