The AGRA fair in Gornja Radgona (Slovenia) is one of the most important agricultural and food fairs in Central Europe, showcasing the latest innovations in precision farming, food safety, digitisation, organic production, forestry, and sustainable water management. This year, the fair once again brought together international experts, producers, and innovators to highlight cutting-edge solutions for a smarter food future. The fair is hosting around 1,700 exhibitors from 30 different countries and is expected to welcome more than 100.000 visitors by its conclusion.
At this year’s AGRA, we have presented the Food4CE Matchmaking Platform, showing how it can support local food producers and other stakeholders in the agri-food sector. Since collaboration between local food producers and logistics providers is still limited, the platform helps them connect with new partners, discover business opportunities, and actively participate in events and networking activities.
Through these activities, Food4CE reinforces its mission to connect regional actors, promote digital and sustainable solutions, and pave the way towards a food system that is both economically viable and socially inclusive, while safeguarding Europe’s long-term food security.
