Introduction


The Fira de Lleida’s desire to adapt its services to the current economy and to provide a response to the various production sectors has led it to set up the first edition of the International Exhibition of Suppliers to the Fruit-Growing Industry – Eurofruit Exhibition, an event intended exclusively for professionals in the fruit sector.

The exhibition will be held in Hall  4 of the Fira de Lleida from 26th to 29th October, 2024. It will bring together the entire offer in terms of services and supplies for the fruit-growing industrial sector.

An exhibition with those features can only emerge and grow in a city that acts as the chief town for a large territory, and that is the economic and nerve centre of districts that underpin its activity in the fruit-growing sector.


For almost three decades, the Fira de Lleida has been organising the International Fruit Sector Exhibition, an event that is held in parallel with the Sant Miguel Agricultural Fair and that has become a reference meeting place for professionals, manufacturers, and distributors connected with the fruit sector in Catalonia, Spain, and Europe.

From the very beginning, the exhibition has aimed at having a wide spectrum of sectors on show in order to cover the entire process of fruit production and sales. That globalised philosophy has attracted businesses ranging from fertilisation and seed companies, via machinery companies, to services relating to promotion and sales.


Partners

The Fira de Lleida is not handling the project alone. We understand that the current macro-economic situation, the competition between exhibitions, and the growing specialisation of the agricultural sector make us seek alliances and travelling companions who help us to plan, focus, and implement the dimensions and the offer of this new event, based on the real demands and needs of professionals in the fruit sector.
