Diversified UK & Europe, event organiser, has announced the co-location of the Natural Food Expo with two other food and drink shows, following research.
The food sections of the Natural & Organic Food Expo (NOPEX) will now co-locate with trade shows lunch! and The National Restaurant & Bar Show from 2026. The show will be known under the umbrella name, The London Food & Drink Shows. The show will remain at Excel London.
The show has seen notable shifts since its inception. NOPEX has grown alongside the rise of organic and natural food sales. Furthermore, the NOPEX has seen a shift from buying habits to health and nutrition.
Georgina Baker, event director, commented on the new format: “Natural & Organic Products Expo has played a defining role in shaping the organic food movement in the UK. Now that organic and natural food has become a staple of mainstream retail, it’s time for us to take the next step in our journey and evolve alongside the changing landscape of the industry.”
Baker added: “By co-locating The Natural & Organic Food Show with the food sector’s leading trade shows, we’re providing exhibitors with access to a wider audience of serious buyers while maintaining the sense of community and shared values that have always defined our event. This move, under the umbrella banner The London Food & Drink Shows, ensures that the brands we champion continue to thrive in an increasingly competitive marketplace and ensures that we move the natural food sector forward together.”
