“This show is a must for us. Great range of companies, lots of new products and a really positive atmosphere. It is really important for us to support local independent companies and Scotland’s Trade Fair is the best way to do this!”

This show is absolutely fantastic with so many new young companies and great to see such a broad range of suppliers. It is very important for us to discover new products, see new talent and see companies that we might not otherwise come across. As a supermarket buyer, it highlights what’s going on in the food industry and how on-trend Scottish producers are.

It’s absolutely essential, having the Trade Fair open and available to us as international buyers. There’s nothing like being able to actually feel and see a product, because sometimes the pictures don’t always translate in what you can find, so having the Trade Fair is something that we really need to have.

"Customers get bored so l need to show stimulating new products, l am looking forward to going to Scotland Trade Fairs again, nothing beats seeing work up close and The Launch Gallery never disappoints."

Really enjoyed the show this year as there are so many new exhibitors. The Launch Gallery is particularly good; I have placed many orders and have companies that I will look at later, too. Seeing, tasting, and touching the products is essential. It is interesting to see how many companies have sprung up and come to market during the pandemic, which is encouraging. The variety at Scotland’s Speciality Food Show and Trade Fair is huge.

I’ve come away from Scotland’s Speciality Food Show with some exciting new Scottish products. You can’t underestimate the benefit of meeting face-to-face and sampling products to give you confidence in any new product before stocking. I’m very excited about the new items I have coming in and have more than I anticipated, but full credit to the event for having such a good mix of producers.
