From 4 to 6 February 2026, Berlin (Germany) will host Fruit Logistica 2026, an international trade fair for the fresh produce industry. This event brings together professionals from all continents and covers the entire value chain, from production to logistics and global marketing.
📅 Dates: 4–6 February 2026
📍 Venue: Messe Berlin, Berlin (Germany)
🌍 Scope: International, with exhibitors and visitors from more than 90 countries.
Fruit Logistica is much more than a fruit and vegetable trade fair: it is the global meeting point where producers, distributors, logistics operators, technology providers and leading brands come together to discover trends, do business and connect with new strategic partners.
With more than 2,600 exhibitors and tens of thousands of professional visitors each year, the event has established itself as the leading international platform for anticipating the needs and solutions of a constantly evolving market.
📦 Packaging and technology at the heart of the logistics of the future
Within the three main segments of the fair—Fresh Produce, Machinery & Technology, and Logistics—logistics plays a fundamental role in the efficiency of the international supply chain.
In the Logistics segment, one of the key pillars for ensuring areas such as cooling (cold chain) and technological packaging, storage and transport systems will be explored to guarantee the freshness, safety and sustainability of fresh products throughout their entire journey. This is where innovation in cold-adapted packaging, smart packaging and conditioning solutions is gaining increasing prominence in response to real challenges across the value chain.
The focus on packaging and cold chain solutions not only optimises preservation and logistical efficiency, but also helps reduce food waste—an aspect that is critical from both an environmental and an economic perspective.
Business, innovation and networking opportunities
The fair combines exhibition spaces with a programme of conferences, thematic forums and special presentations, where industry leaders discuss:
-
Global trends in fruit and vegetable production and consumption.
-
Technological solutions for logistics and the cold chain.
-
Innovation and digitalisation in packaging and transport management.
-
Automation, sustainability and future challenges in the global value chain.
In addition, initiatives such as the Fruit Logistica Innovation Award (FLIA) highlight the most disruptive technologies, including those related to packaging and smart logistics solutions, giving them international visibility before a highly professional audience.
