Fine Food Australia 2017

Australia is an appealing market for US exporters. The country has enjoyed consistent GDP growth for over 2 decades and it offers few barriers to entry. The US-Australia Free Trade Agreement signed in 2005 dropped tariff rates to zero for all US food products. Furthermore and fortunately for SUSTA region companies, consumer-oriented foods and ingredients for further processing dominate Australia’s import market for foodstuffs.

In 2017, Sydney (one of the four largest cities in Australia with about 4.2 million people) will host the 33^rd edition of Fine Food Australia, one of the most attended and renowned tradeshows in the Australasian region. In 2015, a total of 19,682 visitors and 938 exhibitors from over 49 countries attended the show. Moreover, a considerable percentage of the attendees (46.9%) are managers, director or owners in their respective organizations. In addition, given the size of Australia, this show is the most convenient meeting spot for buyers and exhibitors from all over Australia and neighboring countries such as, New Zealand. Attending Fine Food Australia is the most cost effective way to establish potential business relations in Australia given the country’s vast size and high costs of domestic flights.

Fee Includes:

• 9 sq. meter booth with lockable counter, signage, and electricity

• Allowance of up to 100 lbs. of samples shipped to the show through SUSTA’s designated freight forwarder. Please note that chargeable weight is based on actual or dimensional weight (in inches, length x width x height/166, whichever is greater.)
