For over 15 years, Business Sweden has gathered 10-15 export ready Swedish companies in a common Try Swedish pavilion. Due to extreme interest to participate, we have the ambition to expand the size of the pavilion in 2025 to enable more companies to participate, and thereby have a stronger Swedish presence at the fair.

PLMA is one of the most well-known and popular fairs in the food industry, attracting ca. 3000 exhibitors and over 30,000 visitors each year. The fair has a good reputation among buyers, as during two days they are able to visit existing suppliers and discover new and exciting products.
