Since its inception in 1978, it has continuously evolved and takes place every two years at the Stuttgart Trade Fair grounds. In the years when the iba, the leading global trade fair of the industry in Munich, is held, südback takes a break.

It offers targeted sales promotion measures and services specifically tailored to the needs of the bakery and confectionery industry. As a key platform for knowledge and idea exchange, the fair showcases the latest trends, technological developments, and innovations within the sector.

This award is eagerly anticipated and emphasizes the innovative strength of participating companies. Additionally, the fair offers expert lectures in its trend forums, delivered by renowned speakers and industry experts, ensuring that visitors gain access to up-to-date and practical information.
südback takes place at the modern Messe Stuttgart, one of Europe’s leading exhibition venues, known for its excellent infrastructure that attracts both national and international trade visitors. As a central meeting point for professionals from home and abroad, the fair provides an ideal platform for networking and establishing new business contacts.
In summary, südback is a trade fair that not only excels through its clear focus on the bakery and confectionery industry but also through its extensive range of products, services, and information. For professionals in the industry, it is a must-attend event.
