2,420* exhibitors (international share: 70 %) presented their products to 40,313* trade buyers from 130 countries (international share: 41 %) at BioFach and Vivaness 2012. This time the decision-makers were out in force at the world’s leading exhibition.

Every second visitor decisively influences the purchasing or procurement process in his company – an increase of 20 percentage points. Besides Germany (23,592), the top 5 countries for visitors included Austria (1,606), Italy (1,313), the Netherlands (1,218) and France (1,129). The assembled organic players at BioFach, the World Organic Trade Fair, and the parallel Vivaness, Trade Fair for Natural Personal Care and Wellness, used the occasion to announce more growth. The German market grew by 9 % to 6.59 billion EUR in 2011, and international organic sales are just under 60 billion US dollars. Despite the financial crisis, that saw a little decrease in visitors' number, BioFach’s international patron, the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM), and its national supporting organization, Bund Ökologische Lebensmittelwirtschaft (BÖLW – German Federation of the Organic Food Industry), assume more market growth in the future.

The international organic sector meets next time in Nürnberg from 13–16 February 2013. The contract with Romania as Country of the Year in 2013 is about to be signed. Welcome and bine ati venit! Romania is one of the dynamic organic markets in Central and Eastern Europe. Read more about this in the current press release “BioFach 2012: East European organic markets booming”
