Anteil der ausländischen Aussteller steigt erneut

Große Nationen liegen aber noch unter dem Niveau von Vor-Corona – Italien wieder besonders stark vertreten – Großbritannien vermeldet Rekordjahr

Fast 7000 ausländische Hersteller, meldet die Anuga für dieses Jahr. Damit hat die Leitveranstaltung der Lebensmittelbranche ihren Auslandsanteil auf 93 Prozent weiter ausgebaut. 2019 waren es noch 91 Prozent. Wichtige ausstellende Länder wie Italien, Frankreich oder China liegen mit ihren Beteiligungen gleichwohl unter den Zahlen von Vor-Corona. Deutlich stärker geworden sind dagegen die Türkei und Polen, die Niederlande und Großbritannien.

Messe für Europa

Corona lässt die Beteiligung von Ausstellern aus Nord- und Süddamerika, Afrika und Asien deutlich sinken

Spiegelbild der Weltwirtschaft

Keine Nahrungsmittelmesse ist internationaler als die Anuga. Etwa 90 Prozent der mehr als 7600 Anbieter und rund 80 Prozent der Fachbesucher kommen aus dem Ausland. Die größte Präsenz hat zwar nach wie vor Italien mit 925 Unternehmen, gefolgt von Spanien, doch steht China mit über 500 Firmen bereits an dritter Stelle.

The South Seas in a Bowl

Many call it ‘the perfect fast food’: poké bowl concepts are right on trend in the metropolises of Europe because they offer an alternative to burgers and the like. The bowls are both healthy and tasty, and perfect for the takeaway market as well. They usually combine a base of rice or other popular kind of grain, such as quinoa, with toppings of marinated fish, vegetables and high-quality culinary dressings. Our correspondents introduce successful formulas from their countries.

Culinary Hotspots

Originally food courts were conceived as central, efficiently organised food and drink supply points for hungry and tired shoppers. So if earlier mainly high-profile fast-food brands were placed round the joint seating arrangements, today‘s modern food courts increasingly feature regionally-based players with a high-quality yet relatively low-priced range. More and frequently even from top chefs! A combination which is very attractive to foodies and gourmands and makes them culinary hotspots in their own right. Part 2 of our pan-European surveys showcases some further notable examples.

Creative Craft

Craft beer is on everyone’s lips. However, compared to the media attention that has been given in Europe to this young industry in the last few years, the actual proportion of creative brews, in terms of beer consumption as a whole, is still extremely small. In order to change this, more and more craft brewers are launching their own pubs and restaurants. These outlets give the beers an appropriate platform and also frequently offer suitable dishes to accompany them. Part 1 of our European overview presents the most exciting concepts – with or without breweries attached – in four countries.

Blurred Lines

The boundaries between food retail and foodservices are becoming noticeably blurred. Butchers and bakers have long been players in the snack business, including snack front of the cashier’s lane, and more and more supermarkets are likewise extending their facilities for on-the-spot eating, to cut a piece of a pie which is growing ever larger in the modern world. Whether in partnership with strong foodservice brands, shop-in-shop concepts of their own development, or even their own convenience food stores: everywhere in Europe food retailers are venturing on the foodservice terrain. Part I of our pan-European survey.

Rolling up the Fast-Food Market

The burrito has long been domesticated in the USA: immigrants from Mexico imported this staple food from their homeland, and chains like Taco Bell spread the concept of filled pastry cases all over the country. On the West Coast, health-conscious Californians developed the traditionally nutritious working-class food into a modern dish, tailored to the needs of the urban office worker. And new, fresh casual brands, such as Chipotle, made it their signature item. Over recent years, more and more European caterers, particularly start-ups, have been discovering the product as a trend-setting alternative to burgers and all that goes with them. After all, the demand for fast, healthy and fresh food is growing here, too – a trend, the ‘Mission style’ burrito mirrors perfectly.
