When visiting the Gourmet Selection trade show, you will have access to a unique showcase of fine and quality food products, bringing together a wide variety of gourmet products in one place. With 360 exhibitors, nearly a third of whom are international, the trade show allows you to discover thousands of products and to stay ahead of emerging consumer trends.

The worlds to discover at the Gourmet Selection trade show

Your visit will focus on five major worlds covering all aspects of quality foods and their uses. Through these sectors, the trade show will offer you a clear and practical overview of what is on offer and allows you to optimise your visit, whether you are in the sourcing, monitoring or strategic planning phase.

In the savoury world, you will explore a particularly wide range of products, from condiments, spices, salts, peppers and vinegars to pasta, rice, biscuits, chutneys, mustards and oils. Preserves, meat products such as charcuterie, terrines, hams, rillettes and pâtés, as well as seafood products such as sardines, tuna, salmon, seaweed and caviar. You will also find delicatessen products such as foie gras, dips, ready meals and regional and ethnic specialities, not to mention mushrooms, truffles, edible flowers and vegetables.

 

Among the exhibitors present this year are companies such as A L'Olivier, Giusti, Alziari, Établissements JC David and Castaing Foies Gras.

The sweet world showcases pastry and confectionery expertise through a wide selection of biscuits, chocolates, pastries, confectionery, honey, spreads, candied fruit and jams. You will discover iconic recipes revisited with creativity, designed to meet current consumer expectations while enhancing the product at the point of sale.

With its wine and beverage world, Gourmet Selection reflects the premiumisation and diversification of liquid offerings such as beers, ciders, wines, spirits, liqueurs, fruit juices, teas, coffees, infusions, waters and cocoa products in line with new market expectations.
As part of this trend, alcohol-free products now occupy a central place in this world. In 2026, alcohol-free products will no longer be an emerging phenomenon but will establish themselves as a category within the premium drinks market. Identified as a key segment in the Gourmet Selection 2025 trend book, non-alcoholic beverages are accompanying sustainable changes in consumer behaviour, driven by growing demand for enhanced tasting experiences.
Among the exhibitors present this year, you will find companies such as Distillerie Paul Devoille, Rhum de Ced’, L’Infuseur and Maison Bissardon.
The non-food world completes the product experience by integrating tableware, packaging, decoration and packaging solutions. Utensils, kitchen accessories and gift boxes accompany the promotion of gourmet products and enrich the customer experience.
