Fi South America Sao Paulo

26. - 28. August 2025 | Trade fair for food, beverages and nutraceutical ingredients

Fi South America (“Food Ingredients South America”) is the leading trade fair for food ingredients and innovative solutions in the food and beverage industry in Latin America. Since its inception in 1996, the event has evolved into a key industry meeting point and takes place annually at the modern São Paulo Expo in São Paulo. As part of the international Fi event series, organized by Informa Markets—a trading division of London-based Informa PLC—Fi South America stands for innovation, networking, and professional orientation in the field of food ingredients.

With its clear focus on health-oriented, natural, and plant-based ingredients, Fi South America occupies a unique position in the South American market. Every year, it attracts both international and regional exhibitors and professionals, providing a specialized platform for companies to showcase their latest developments. The range of offerings extends from vitamins, minerals, and functional ingredients to plant-based proteins, clean label products, as well as gluten-free and allergen-free solutions. This portfolio is complemented by classic ingredients such as sweeteners, texturizers, natural flavors, colorants, and certified organic raw materials.

The event sees itself as a driving force for innovation across the entire industry value chain. Elements such as guided innovation tours, trend-based tasting areas, the Plant-Based Experience for plant-based nutrition trends, and the Sustainability Experience for sustainable circular economy are integral parts of the concept and offer genuine added value.

Exhibitors include leading ingredient manufacturers, food safety and quality experts, suppliers of new process technologies, as well as service and logistics providers. The main visitors are professionals and executives from procurement, development, production, and quality assurance within the food and beverage sector, as well as from related industries such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and dietary supplements.

The São Paulo location adds extra significance to the event: The city is considered South America’s economic and innovation hub and has a major influence on both the regional and global food industry. The São Paulo Expo offers state-of-the-art infrastructure and is centrally located, with excellent connections to public transport and the international airport. Visitors benefit from the city’s vibrant culture and diverse culinary and leisure offerings, experiencing Fi South America as the most important meeting point for trends, networking, and business in the South American ingredients community.

The Fi South America will take place on 3 days from Tuesday, 26. August to Thursday, 28. August 2025 in Sao Paulo.
