By Ruwani Fonseka The Embassy of Sri Lanka in Belgium, together with the Export Development Board of Sri Lanka (EDB), promoted Ceylon Tea, Sri Lankan spices, and coconut-based products at the eighth edition of the Intrafood trade fair in Kortrijk, Belgium on 27 and 28 October 2021. This was made known via the official government news website yesterday (4). The two-day biannual trade event was a professional trade fair for the Benelux (Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg) and Northern France region which connected food industry managers from the research and development, product development, production, purchasing, and quality departments with suppliers and manufacturers of raw materials, ingredients, additives, consumables, and semi-processed products to find all the ingredients and state-of-the-art information to help them develop new or improved products. The Intrafood trade fair has established itself as the number one meeting place for the food ingredient industry in the Benelux and Northern France region. Sri Lankan exporter Wichy Plantation Company participated in the fair, exhibiting a variety of processed and semi-processed organic coconut products, including vegan and dairy alternatives such as coconut milk, coconut syrup, and creamed coconut, as well as a range of Ceylon teas and spices, attracting many inquiries from the visitors. The Embassy also facilitated virtual interaction between the industry managers and representatives of Wichy for establishing business contacts. The organisers of the fair hosted seminars during the two-day event that covered a broad spectrum of current topics, including information on the purchase of sustainable agricultural raw materials and certification, current trends in the food industry, as well as new products and projects from food industry leaders. The Intrafood trade fair was held exclusively for industry professionals, which had 120 exhibitors and attracted around 1,500 food industry professionals. This is the second time Sri Lanka has participated in the Intrafood trade fair since 2018. The next edition of the fair will be held in 2023.
