Well-known companies among BioWest exhibitors

The BioWest exhibitor list (trade show section) features brands and manufacturers well known in the organic and natural product market. Below are examples of companies listed in the exhibitor catalog.

• Allos Hof-Manufaktur GmbH. A brand with strong shelf presence in organic foods, where taste and trust matter. At the trade show, companies like this are typically attractive to buyers who want to refresh their assortment without risk.

• Andechser Molkerei Scheitz GmbH. A dairy producer well known in Germany’s organic segment. This is the type of exhibitor where it’s easy to discuss supply terms and channel-specific presence.

• Adelholzener Alpenquellen GmbH. Beverages and water are categories where consistent quality and logistics are critical. At BioWest, companies like this often become a key destination for wholesalers and retail chains.

• AROMANDISE. Fragrances and related products perform well as impulse purchases and gifts. Meetings are a good time to discuss which SKUs work best for your specific audience.

• Alnatura? / other chains. If you’re specifically looking for retail chains, check the current catalog closer to the event: the participant list changes, and the 2026 lineup is still being updated.

Important: the final exhibitor lineup and booth numbers are usually confirmed closer to the event. If your goal is meetings with specific brands, make contact early and schedule appointments in time slots.

Visitor tips for BioWest: how to get the most out of one day

At BioWest, the winners are those who arrive with a plan. One day goes fast, and you can easily have dozens of valuable meetings.

• Complete accreditation in advance. Pre-registration saves time at the entrance.

• Book meetings ahead of time. The best negotiations rarely happen “by accident”. Message key exhibitors and lock in 15–20 minute time slots.

• Use the on-site services. There’s an information desk at the entrance and a cloakroom (paid). Trolleys and wheeled suitcases are not permitted — keep this in mind for logistics.

• Create a “route” through the hall. Hall 8a is large. If you move by categories instead of randomly, you’ll see more and tire less.

• Follow the program. BioMessen typically features talks, panel discussions, presentations, and new product spotlights. This helps you quickly understand where the market is heading and which topics are “where the money is” right now.

• A leadership hack. Block 60 minutes in the middle of the day for a quick “debrief”: note who you’re taking forward and what you need to request after the trade show.

How to exhibit at BioWest 2026

BioWest 2026 is a format where an exhibition stand works like a meeting room. It’s not about massive structures — it’s about smart product presentation and comfortable conversations.

• Check the admission criteria. It is stated that the trade show focuses on high-quality organic retail and the relevant categories.

• Request exhibitor documents. Organizers provide the application form and terms upon request.

• Keep the timeline in mind. For exhibitors, registration codes are usually sent about four weeks before the event. One code can be used to register up to four people.

• Plan logistics and build-up. Organizers define time windows for access, deliveries, build-up, and dismantling. This helps avoid chaos on the trade show day.
