Taking place from January 28 to 31, 2024, ProSweets Cologne will bring together over 250 exhibitors from over 25 countries, representing the international supplier industry for sweets and snacks. Together with it, its traditional counterpart, ISM, will also be held.

Important industry players are on board for the fair kicking off 2024, including Aasted, ACMA, Handtmann, Boettger Food Ingredients, Cavanna, Dumoulin, FUJI Packaging, Gerhard Schubert GmbH, GNT Group B.V., Hänsel Processing, NETZSCH-Feinmahltechnik, Norevo, SACMI Packaging & Chocolate S.p.A., Sollich KG, Syntegon Technology GmbH, Trikno AG, ULMA Packaging S.Coop. and Wilhelm Rasch.
The organizers prepared several novelties for the visitors, such as an interactive event program in the exhibition sections ‘Packaging & Packaging Materials’ and ‘Raw Materials and Ingredients’.

The ‘Sustainable Packaging Special Show’ will focus on the origin and procurement of products and their raw materials. The special ‘InGREENients’ exhibition zone will present sustainable snack innovations from all over the globe that are made using unusual ingredients. Here, with a view to future cooperations, the exhibitors and visitors can engage in a direct exchange with selected start-ups, who will present their products within the collaboration section.
Exhibitors of ISM can take advantage of coordinated Guided Tours across all segments of ProSweets, which emphasize sustainable packaging concepts. Furthermore, ISM exhibitors can invite their employees, who are particularly responsible for the visitor groups relevant for ProSweets, i.e. from the production and development areas, to visit the trade fair.
