Eurobrands in collaboration with the Export Organisation of South Tyrol (EOS) organised a delegation to the Food Hospitality World in Mumbai during 09-12 January 2013.
The companies from South Tyrol received a general introduction to the Indian market, a brief on India’s cultural aspects and in collaboration with AC Nielsen and the Future Group an overview of the history and the future of the retail sector in India.
After visiting some of the most modern retail stores in Mumbai (like “The Foodhall” and “Natures Basket”), the delegates exhibited their products at the Food Hospitality World, a trade show organised by Milano Fiere form Italy in collaboration with the Hannover Messe from Germany. Eurobrands organised B2B Meetings during the exhibition and assisted the companies from the South Tyrol region (Northern Italy) by providing them market intelligence information with focus on the emerging imported food category in India.
The companies participating in the trade delegation included:
