Flower Expo Poland has already proven to be an effective platform for gaining business contacts and succeeding in the Polish market. And it is worth being there – Poland’s economy is one of the fastest-growing in the EU and with unprecedented demand for flowers and plants. The 4th edition of the fair will take place on September 5-7, 2019 in Warsaw.
Demand
The Polish market of flowers and pot plants is growing even more rapidly than the whole Polish economy (+5.1% in 2018). For instance, export of flowers and plants from the Netherlands to Poland has been on the rise for the past five years now with annual double growth rates. In 2017 it reached €230 million.
Love of flowers
This 38-million nation is also exceptionally attached to the presence of flowers as a company of important occasions. It is natural for Poles to choose flowers when it comes to gifts, events and special moments. The Flower Expo Poland 2019 motto – Natural Choice – emphasizes also that the organic need of people is to surround themselves with greenery. Those ideas will be included in the trade show wide scenography and program – showrooms, flower and product shows, seminars and workshops.
Gateway
Thanks to its geographical position, Poland is the perfect location for business operations targeted to the nearby countries, such as the Baltic States, Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. Future floriculture events in Poland i.e. the European Floristic Championship in 2020 and the World Horticultural Exhibition in 2024, are confirming the country’s strong position in the flower and horti sector of the region.
Synergy
For outdoor greenery inspirations one can also visit the 27th Green Is Life International Exhibition organized together with Flower Expo Poland since its beginning in 2016. The synergy of the fairs makes them the most complementary event for flower and horti sector in the region.
