Inspiring food industry Insights 

Additionally, the show’s free to attend seminar programme will set the stage for vital insights about food trends, trade and retail. This includes the show’s annual Big Nordic Organic Debate - an important platform for Nordic leaders to come together to discuss the future of organic (facilitated by IFOAM Organics).

The ‘Big Nordic Organic Debate’ will bring together organic leaders from Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Iceland. These experts will share their valuable insights regarding the state of organic in their respective markets and will delve into vital trends for retailers to watch. 

Last year’s debate which was facilitated by IFOAM Organics Europe’s Deputy Director, Joanna Wierzbicka, featured Aura Lamminparras (CEO of Pro Luomu r); Charlotte Bladh André (CEO, Organic Sweden); Helle Borup Friberg (CEO, Organic Denmark); Eyglo Bjork Olafsdottir (Chairman, Organic Iceland); and Markus Lohne Hustad (CEO, Økologisk Norge).

“It is always both inspiring and rewarding to discuss the market development for organic food with our Nordic neighbours. Our markets look different in many ways, but we still have a lot to learn from each other. What strengthens me the most is hearing how we are all working hard to change the food system with organic as part of the solution,” says Charlotte Bladh André CEO at Organic Sweden.

Joanna Wierzbicka, Deputy Director at IFOAM Organics Europe added: “We are excited to continue partnership with Diversified Communications, a company with a proven track record of promoting sustainability and innovation in the food industry. By combining our resources, we enhance our understanding of market trends and challenges and exchange ideas. That helps us more effectively address current industry challenges, making meaningful impact on the sector’s progress.”
