“We were so impressed with the way our trade visitors and exhibitors rose to last week’s challenges, as fresh produce people so often do,” said David Ruetz, Senior Vice President of Messe Berlin. “This is a resilient industry, one that knows how to handle challenging conditions and logistical hurdles. So it was no surprise that, despite the snow, everyone on the show floor remained focused, energetic and productive.”
There was plenty on offer to excite and inspire those who attended – four in five of whom visited from outside Germany. From cutting-edge developments in production, marketing, packaging and technology throughout its exhibition halls, to the most relevant, insightful talks and discussions on a range of vital topics across its conference stages, FRUIT LOGISTICA 2026 strengthened its position as the sector’s undisputed centre of business knowledge. The annual FRUIT LOGISTICA Innovation Awards underlined their role as the industry’s standard-bearer for progress and productivity, while zones including the Startup World, New Product Showcases, and Smart Agri Area all highlighted essential advances in the business. All of which made it an unbeatable international meeting.
Both exhibitors and trade visitors gave FRUIT LOGISTICA 2026 very good marks. The results of the representative trade visitor survey confirm a high level of satisfaction with both the business success and the event content. Exhibitor representatives are also very satisfied with FRUIT LOGISTICA 2026. Numerous business deals ensure a positive conclusion to the trade fair.

The preliminary results of the representative trade visitor survey also show a high level of satisfaction: well over 90% of participants expressed a positive overall impression of FRUIT LOGISTICA 2026 and would recommend the event to their colleagues or business partners.
