History

Originating from the former Anuga-Technica and DLG-FoodTec, Anuga FoodTec has been providing an overview of food production technologies since 1996. Since 2011, Koelnmesse has maintained a strategic partnership for Anuga FoodTec with the "Packaging Machinery Manufacturers Institute" (PMMI), USA (the organizer of Pack Expo and Expo Pack). In April 2016, Koelnmesse entered into a cooperation with Fiere di Parma to jointly organize the Cibus Tec food technology trade fair in Parma in the future.

"In 2012, it had 42,986 visitors (from 126 countries) and 1,289 exhibitors (from 41 countries), and was conducted on a gross area of 127,000 m².
