ABOUT THE GOURMET SELECTION FINE FOOD SHOW
Since 2009, Gourmet Selection has been the leading trade fair for the quality grocery sector and gourmet products.
Over 2 days, it brings together over 300 exhibitors and 5,500 trade visitors in a unique and convivial event where producers, manufacturers, distributors and specialist retailers meet to exchange, discover new products and forge partnership.
We're convinced that gourmet products brighten up our everyday lives. They bring a touch of indulgence to what is otherwise ordinary, feeding our hunger for discovering new things, and creating an authentic bond. This is possible thanks to the people who imagine, make, package and sell them in order to share them as widely as possible.
