About the event
COVID Update
It’s regrettable, but not surprising to hear about the cancellation of IFE 2021 as a result of COVID-19 and lack of government guidance. Montgomery International Ltd. had to make the very tough decision to wait an entire year and return in March 2022 with a stronger, safer event complex.
Live trade fairs are especially important for the foods and drinks industry, which is why it’s so important to bring back IFE 2022 as a physical event. The new dates are confirmed for the period March 21st – March 23rd at ExCel London. The exhibition grounds have an ‘All Secure Standard’ risk-assessment and plans for extensive coronavirus preventive measures.
Calling Card
The International Food & Drink Event – IFE for short – has been at the centre of the food and beverages industry in the UK. It’s the biggest and best loved international exhibition every time it is staged in London, UK. ExCel London welcomes thousands over the course of four days every single year in March. IFE takes place at the start of the year and gives chance for exhibitors to get reacquainted with existing clients and generate sales leads on a grand scale. Nowhere else do you discover the same quality of products and attendees, not to mention learn all new emerging trends and innovations.
Business Profile
When we talk about IFE being the biggest of its kind in the UK, we mean the biggest and this all extends to the type of products on display. The exhibition halls are divided into nine themed areas: Great British & Irish Food, grocery, health & wellbeing, cheese & dairy, drinks, bakery, meat & seafood, ingredients, and snacks & confectionery. As you can see, that’s the entire food and drinks industry in the UK, which makes IFE the perfect venue to break into the UK market and also to come in contact with brands such as Tesco and Planet Organic, TEA REX, Sodexo, Borough Market, Gourmet Burger Kitchen, Harrods and even the NHS. IFE is the prime meeting point for buyers, but you also have related professions in attendance whether it’s food production specialists or chefs who have come to sign up for cooking competitions.
Did You Know?
The future of food and drink is a topic very near and dear to IFE. It’s why organisers work hard to secure first-rate experts and veterans in the industry to assist visitors and exhibitors. Over the course of a single edition, you have your choice between 70 talks, interactive workshops and panels that tackle market opportunities, industry challenges, responsible production and sustainability. It is the perfect source for information, especially if you step onto the Talking Trends stage. There you can learn about new cuisines and perform taste tests. Business owners can also tap into the experience and knowledge of seasoned experts at the Advice To Go Zone. Last but not least, stay for the cooking championships that happen every year across multiple disciplines.

Hello Megan,
Thanks for your mail, I see you are “monitoring us”, like CIA / FBI …. J J J We have positive feedback about Euro Park Hotel, all went fine, as scheduled. Anyhow, no problems, we decided to confirm in advance and it is OK, it was our decision. Hotel people were good and friendly, rooms clean, hotel in general was OK. Maybe just a little remark: missing real coffee, maybe better coffee maker is appreciated more (the one available was not good…..but this is our taste, maybe others are appreciating).
Keep in touch Megan,
Bye now, Enzo

Dear Megan,
The hotel all in all is good. Rooms are fine with good beds and bathrooms. Breakfast is very good for a hotel of this size. A small thing, but it would have been good with more English speaking TV channels.
It is ok to use public transports to the exhibitions ground, but it would have been even better to have a similar hotel along U78 north of the city centre when exhibiting at the Dusseldorf Messe.
Best regards,
Ingrid/Group Marketing Manager

Hi Tom,
Thank you for your care and support during our collaboration. We enjoyed Marriott and we had really great results at the fair. I will fill in the feedback for your services soon. Now I’m still caught up with the following tasks after the fair. So far I had some complaints regarding the smoking rooms. Apparently the hotel had no knowledge about your request for the smoking rooms. They had some, but all of them were already given to other guests. We kindly ask you to check where the miscommunication happened. Thank you and looking forward to our next collaboration.
Best regards,
