Vitafoods Europe is an important trade event for the nutraceutical, functional food, and dietary supplement industries. It used to take place every year in Geneva, Switzerland. However, Vitafoods 2025 and Vitafoods 2026 will take place in Barcelona. The event features over 1,300 exhibitors and attracts more than 20,000 attendees from over 100 countries. It is a key place for ingredient suppliers, private label brands, and health product developers to connect.
The fair is a great place for professionals. They can find new ingredients, check if they meet regulations, and connect with partners in food supplements, functional drinks, sports nutrition, and wellness.
Vitafoods Europe covers the entire nutraceutical industry, from sourcing raw materials to creating finished products. Buyers looking for certified ingredients, such as plant-based proteins, botanical extracts, functional fibers, probiotics, vitamins, and oils, can connect with global suppliers directly. This event is particularly useful for those seeking new ingredients for their brand or business.
At the Vitafoods Expo, professionals look for suppliers who can meet organic, non-GMO, vegan, halal, and kosher standards. Before the event, buyers can filter the online exhibitor list by ingredient type, certification, and region. This helps them schedule meetings more easily.
The 2026 event is set to have more than 1,400 exhibitors and attract over 25,000 attendees from around the world. There will be more exhibition space and better chances to network.
The fair is designed to help create business partnerships and promote new ideas in sourcing. It showcases ingredients that support health, like immune support, brain health, gut health, and healthy aging. The Innovation Zone and Clinical Trials Zone are special areas for launching new products, sharing case studies, and showcasing new technologies.
At Vitafoods, you will find many contract manufacturers, white label providers, and formulation labs. Buyers looking for private label supplement manufacturers can get in touch with partners who handle everything from creating formulas to packaging. These companies follow strict quality and GMP guidelines. They serve sports nutrition brands, health retailers, and wellness companies looking to develop products quickly or enter new markets.
Vitafoods Europe is different from larger food shows because it focuses only on health-related products. This makes it a good place for procurement experts, research and development teams, and decision-makers in the dietary supplement and functional food areas. At this event, attendees can try ingredients, check suppliers, and discuss regulations all in one location.
For private label buyers, comparing manufacturers based on delivery times, minimum order quantities and formulation options makes Vitafoods a valuable place to grow their brands. It is also a great chance to spot trends, evaluate new ingredient claims, and build strong relationships with suppliers.
Vitafoods Europe 2026 will be held at Fira Barcelona Gran Via. This venue is one of the largest and newest in Europe. It is in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, about 10 km from the city center and a 15-minute drive from Barcelona El Prat Airport (BCN).
Other important exhibitions in the b2b food industry are: SIAL, PLMA, Gulfood, Anuga and Biofach.
