- Food service and hospitality; caterers, cafés, restaurants and hotels to pubs and guest houses.
- The public sector; from institutes such as schools and hospitals.
Helping you make better informed decisions
If you’re in the food, drink, hospitality or catering business, there’s no better place than a trade show to find the quality ingredients, equipment and services that you need. You can’t taste artisan cheese on a website, compare the flavours of different craft ales in a catalogue, or evaluate the quality of tablecloths in a brochure! Attending the show gives you the change to see the latest innovations in food and drink, as well as testing and evaluating the products and services on show. Face to face is the best way to meet the people behind the products and the best deals are done in person, not over the phone. You’ll almost certainly get better terms and superior service if you’ve taken the time to build a proper relationship with them.
Who can you expect to see?
Expowest Cornwall presents an unusually broad range of products and services. These span the whole of the hospitality and catering market from foodservice to fresh produce, bakery to business services, ice cream to catering equipment, drinks to dairy, tableware to toiletries, and speciality foods to sundry supplies, plus much more besides.
When it comes to building those all-important business relationships there’s no substitute for meeting people face to face and no better time or place to do so than at Expowest Cornwall.
The show gives us an opportunity to meet with our existing suppliers and get inspiration from potential suppliers to meet the needs of our business. It’s well organised and professional, and provides lots of ideas.”
