Visitor registration opens early for UK's lunch! show
Visitor registration for lunch! 2011, the UK's premier food-to-go trade show, is now open. Over 3,500 quality buyers and senior decision-makers from the out of home food and drink industry are expected to attend the event, when it returns to London's Old Billingsgate on 29-30 September.
Citing growing demand, organiser Diversified Business Communications (Diversified UK) has opened visitor registration a full month earlier than in previous years. Trade visitors pre-registering their details now, will now have more time to organise their schedules and be able take full advantage of any advance discounts and savings on their travel and accommodation arrangements. They will also ensure that they are kept fully up-to-date with all the latest news and exhibitor information being released in the lead up to the show.
The event has grown from strength to strength since its inception in 2007. Last year's highlights included a Best UK Trade Show Award from the Association of Event Organisers (AEO) plus significant growth in overall attendance (up 24% to 3115). For 2011, Diversified UK are preparing to break yet more records, with a 50% increase in exhibition space combined with unparalleled exhibitor demand fuelling the prospect of a sell-out show (stands are currently selling 98% faster than 2010, and there are now only two stands remaining on the ground floor).
lunch! 2011 will feature over 160 exhibitors showcasing a distinctive array of products, services and technologies to thousands of speciality buyers from all the major food-to-go chains, supermarkets, contract caterers, wholesalers, distributors, and quality independents. Show highlights include Keynotes and live demonstrations, the British Smoothie Championships (sponsored by Magrini), and the prestigious lunch! Retailer of the Year Awards.
