Slovakia at the Anuga 2023 trade fair

Slovak Investment and Trade Development Agency (SARIO) within the national project Support of Internationalization of SMEs in the period from 7th until 11th October 2023 prepared a platform for ten Slovak small and medium-sized enterprises for their presentation at a joint exhibition at the International food fair Anuga2023 in Cologne, Germany.

With approximately 140,000 industry visitors from 200 countries and around 7,900 exhibitors from 118 nations, the world's leading trade fair exceeded all forecasts. The international representation among exhibitors reached an impressive 94 percent, and on the visitor side, it achieved a record level of 80 percent. 

The Slovak Republic was represented at the exhibition by a national stand under the Good Idea Slovakia brand organized by the SARIO agency with the participation of ten Slovak companies.

The aim of the participation of Slovak small and medium-sized enterprises in the Anuga 2023 was the opportunity to present their business activities and present their product range to foreign partners, as well as to establish new business contacts with the aim of exporting their products and services to Germany.

The importance of Slovakia's participation in the fair was also supported by the Slovak Ambassador in Berlin, Marián Jakubócy, who during their visit to the joint exhibition discussed with representatives of Slovak companies their production processes and the possibilities and conditions of entering the German market.
