BIOFACH in Nuremberg is much more than just a trade fair—it is the global heart of the organic movement. For over 30 years, the international organic community has been gathering here to present and discuss products, standards, visions, and solutions related to sustainable nutrition, organic agriculture, and social change. With more than 2,700 exhibitors from over 100 countries and around 50,000 trade visitors, BIOFACH is the world's largest trade fair for certified organic products. At the same time, it acts as a catalyst for political, economic, and ethical debates on food sovereignty, climate protection, and the transformation of agricultural systems.
At BIOFACH, buyers, retailers, restaurateurs, producers, and media representatives will find an impressive variety of products from all areas of the organic food industry:
All products on display are certified organic—a unique selling point that underscores the high credibility of the trade fair. Anyone interested in other trade fairs in the region can find a comprehensive overview of the regional event portfolio at Nuremberg Trade Fair.
VIVANESS, the international trade fair for natural cosmetics, takes place parallel to BIOFACH. Here, too, the focus is on certified quality—from skin and hair care to decorative cosmetics and sustainable packaging solutions. The combination of both events creates valuable synergies between the food trade and the natural cosmetics industry.
Biofach brings together organic pioneers, political actors, NGO representatives, food start-ups, and wholesalers on an equal footing. The trade fair is not only a trading platform, but also a social forum—a place where standards, guidelines, labeling systems, and international trade relations are discussed. Topics such as the economy for the common good, biodiversity, animal welfare, and regenerative agriculture also have a firm place in the trade fair program.
The Biofach Congress, which takes place at the same time, is one of the most influential and renowned forums in the international organic sector. In over 150 sessions with around 10,000 participants, topics such as climate change, food security, digitalization, urban farming, seed sovereignty, and the political framework for organic farming will be discussed. This is where new alliances are formed, scientific findings are presented, and successful practical examples from around the world are shared.
Special attention is paid to future-oriented topics such as:
In the New Products Experience Zone, visitors can discover and evaluate new products. The Best New Product Awards recognize the most innovative organic products of the year.
In a world seeking guidance on nutrition, ethics, and the environment, Biofach is one of the most important voices. It shows that organic is not a niche market, but a systemically relevant, global market with social and ecological responsibility. The trade fair is a marketplace, a think tank, and a movement all at once—and for many, an unmissable event with a clear stance.
