SANA Food, a major trade fair for the food industry, was established in 1988 and takes place annually at the prestigious BolognaFiere exhibition center in Bologna. Its central location in one of Italy’s most diverse culinary cities provides easy access for both locals and international visitors, blending tradition with modern hospitality.
The fair is dedicated to sustainable and healthy food options, perfectly meeting the consumers' demand for nutritious and innovative products. The selection includes vegan, vegetarian, and plant-based products, specialties for specific dietary needs, and certified organic products, which have been the cornerstone of the fair for over three decades.
SANA Food connects professionals from the hospitality, retail, and distribution sectors, creating a platform for the exchange of ideas and business opportunities. The fair showcases a wide array of innovations, from new recipes to advanced packaging solutions, all aimed at making the food industry more sustainable.
Another highlight is the concurrent Slow Wine Fair, which enriches the offering with sustainably produced, high-quality wines. Additionally, the fair hosts a series of events, including the Lab Academy SANA Food with seminars on consumer trends and market analysis, and the Rivoluzione Bio Conference, where leading players in the organic market discuss key industry issues.
The organizer, BolognaFiere S.p.A., ensures that a comprehensive program is offered each year, not only providing information but also practical insights into the latest culinary techniques. This is achieved through cooking shows and masterclasses led by renowned chefs and experts.
Thanks to its central location in Bologna, the fair is easily accessible and surrounded by excellent accommodation and dining options, making it an ideal meeting point for professionals from around the world.
Overall, SANA Food offers more than just a trade fair; it is an experience that transports visitors to the future of the food industry, offering unparalleled opportunities for education, innovation, and business development.
The SANA Food takes place annually, and therefore for the 37th time previsibly in February 2026 in Bologna.
