Mundidulce is Alimentaria's show for sweets, biscuits and confectionery. Close to 160 companies from the sweets sector will gather in the more than 7,000m2 allotted to the next edition of Mundidulce. The exhibition is a clear point of reference for the industry. Consequently, it enjoys the unconditional support of the Spanish Federation of Sweets Associations (FEAD) and CAOBISCO, the association's European equivalent. New this year, Alimentaria 2008 will arrange more than a hundred meetings between purchasing agents and exhibitors from this sector-specific exhibition.

The show represents a key venue for establishing business contacts with representatives of foreign companies. Mundidulce 2008 will once again welcome the leaders of CAOBISCO (Association of Chocolate, Biscuit and Confectionery Industries of the European Union). More than 70 European businesspeople and industry experts will attend the show in order to meet with key representatives of FEAD, the Spanish industry association.

Programme of business meetings
Within the framework of Mundidulce, Distribution and Innovation Seminars will be held as well as rounds of business meetings in order to further the industry's economic activity. Alimentaria has invited purchasing agents and wholesalers from major purchasing entities in order to arrange approximately 120 interviews solely with Mundidulce exhibitors. Their visit will end with an extensive tour of the trade fair.

Almost 160 companies from the sweets sector will gather in 7,000m2 of exhibition space allotted to Mundidulce 2008. At this edition, the show will change to a new location in order to share synergies with Multiproducto, a show where companies such as Nutrexpa, Danone, Nestlé, Gallina Blanca and Pascual, among others, can be found.

The Rising Stars of Impulse Buying
Alimentaria is committed to encouraging interesting and dynamic initiatives such as the The Rising Stars of Impulse Buying exhibition and competition. This activity, integrated within the Mundidulce show, will allow visitors to view the latest developments within the impulse channel.
