Frequently asked questions
Every three years. The next major edition is in 2028 in Frankfurt.
Yes — recent editions have built a dedicated zone for plant-based and cultivated-meat technology, alongside the traditional meat-processing focus.
No. Smaller and mid-sized Norwegian processors get strong value from IFFA — many exhibitors specifically target the SME segment with right-sized equipment.
Messe Frankfurt is one of Europe's largest exhibition complexes. IFFA typically uses four to six halls. We brief our groups beforehand so you focus on the most relevant zones.
IFFA has strong packaging coverage but for a deeper packaging focus you should also consider Interpack — they alternate to give a fuller picture of the industry.
