The SÜFFA in Stuttgart, also known as the "Süddeutsche Fachmesse für das Fleischerhandwerk", was founded in 1984 and has established itself as the leading trade fair for the national meat industry. Organized by the Landesmesse Stuttgart GmbH, it attracts not only experts from Germany but also from neighboring countries. This annual industry gathering held in the fall is only omitted in the year of the IFFA in Frankfurt am Main, positioning itself as a central hub for the butchery sector and the medium-sized industry.
The focus of the fair lies on the latest developments and innovations in the meat business, ranging from slaughtering techniques to production, logistics, packaging, and retail sales. Here, it's not just meat and sausage specialties that are showcased, but also commercial goods, marketing solutions, and waste disposal technologies. A particular emphasis of the SÜFFA is on current societal topics such as food safety, hygiene, and quality management. This reflects the growing awareness in society about the origin, quality, and processing of foodstuffs.
A unique highlight and distinctive feature of the SÜFFA is the awarding of the SÜFFA Innovation Prize, which honors outstanding new developments in the industry. Additionally, the "SÜFFA-Dorf" offers a diverse accompanying program. Here, competitions take place, a "Marketplace of Ideas" invites for exchange, and trends and innovations are presented on a stage.
The location of the fair, the Stuttgart Fairgrounds, provides both exhibitors and visitors with modern infrastructures and excellent accessibility. Year after year, the SÜFFA attracts a multitude of visitors who appreciate the balanced combination of production and sales.
In conclusion, it can be said that the SÜFFA plays an indispensable role in the meat industry as a meeting point for the sector and serves as a bridge between tradition and innovation within the industry.
On the whole the organisers welcomed on the 3 days of the fair, from 18. September to 20. September 2021, about 4800 visitors on the SÜFFA in Stuttgart.
The SÜFFA will take place on 3 days from Saturday, 07. November to Monday, 09. November 2026 in Stuttgart.
