Canada Faces a Major Opportunity at Fruit Attraction 2025, Which Reinforces its Global Reach with a 5% growth
With more than two months to go, Fruit Attraction confirms the participation of 2,179 companies from 61 countries and an exhibition area of 73,655 square metres, which means an increase of 5% over last year's total.
Forecasts for Fruit Attraction 2025 estimate that the event will surpass 2,500 companies, cover 75,000 square metres of fresh produce offering and welcome over 120,000 trade professionals from 150 countries.
In addition to the new features at this edition, such as the new distribution and sectorisation of its ten halls, the tomato has been selected as the start product of this edition. It is the most widely consumed vegetable in the world. The activities at the trade fair will be focused on three areas: its role in our diet, its social and economic value, and the geopolitical implications of its global trade.
Malaysia and Mexico will be the main markets of the Guest Importing Countries initiative, which will be added to the impressive Buyers Programme that, with the collaboration of MAPA and ICEX, will bring more than 700 buyers from around the world. Additionally, ICEX will organise the World Fresh Forum, the series of webinars featuring experts and trade professionals focusing on Mexico, Malaysia and China, taking place on 15, 16 and 17 September.
Fruit Attraction 2025 will be presenting the Best Stand Awards, which will recognise those exhibition spaces that stand out at the trade fair for their creativity, design and commitment to sustainability in its four categories: Most Original; Best Design; Most Sustainable and Audience Favourite.
On the other hand, Fruit Attraction is promoting the Organic Hub Tour, a specially signposted route within the trade fair that will give greater visibility to certified organic products.
Finally, Fruit Attraction will once again serve as a hub for industry knowledge, with a full programme of technical forums covering a wide variety of topics and featuring high-level speakers and experts.

FCL has developed an innovative lithium-ion battery fire-extinguishing agent named FCL-X™ to address the increasing number of difficult-to-extinguish and hazardous lithium-ion battery-based fires. FCL-X™ is a non-hazardous fire extinguishing agent specifically designed to combat lithium-ion cell and/or battery fires. A water-based solution, FCL-X™ has been tested by 3 rd party laboratories as well as on live battery fires, on both small and industrial scale fires, and has proved that it mitigates the lithium oxidation reaction, limiting hydrogen generation and stabilizing decomposing electrolytes. FCL-X™ is easy to use, with fast heat dissipation, minimal clean-up, and non-hazardous properties, making it a sustainable choice. FCL has gathered a leading technical team with over 100 years of combined lithium, fire, and safety training and firefighting experience.
