This year’s edition will take place in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on November 7-8, along with the International Expo: “Aliment.AR”, a food and beverages exhibition where numerous vendors from across the region will be displaying their most innovative products. This alliance will allow participants to increase their opportunities to do business by being part of the LAC Flavors B2B Meetings (where more than 150 buyers and 500 suppliers are expected to participate), and by exploring the showroom at Aliment.AR from November 8-10. Additionally, buyers will have the chance to meet with official representatives of Export Promotion Agencies from several LAC countries, who can help them find additional suppliers in their countries on a regular basis.
