The EVOLIO Expo events

Conferences and workshops of EVOLIO Expo

The programme is characterised by four national macro-themes: Oil, environment, landscape and identity – Oil and health: EVO oil, a natural medicine for a healthy diet and good communication – Oil and oil tourism - Oil and innovation.

From theory to practice: each day of the event focuses on a specific theme, featuring internationally renowned stakeholders, university lecturers and high-profile speakers.

EVOLIO Expo is a unique opportunity to explore the world of extra virgin olive oil. Throughout the three days of the fair, seminars, conferences and talks are held on product quality and control (in collaboration with bodies, associations and institutions, PDO and PGI organisations), on the knowledge and history of the product (PGI, PDO, terroir, cultivars, single-variety oils and the CAP), on sustainability, on EVO-health, and on the state of the art in large-scale retail distribution (in collaboration with the magazines MarkUp and GDO Week).

All this takes place in collaboration with the National Association of Oil Cities, CIHEAM Bari – Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari, the Puglia Agri-Food Academy of the Higher Technological Institute, Slow Food Puglia, trade associations within the agricultural partnership, producer organisations, sommelier associations and many others.

International Activites

Meetings with Foreign Buyers

EVOLIO Expo is an opportunity for all exhibitors to expand their business and forge new professional relationships.

With the aim of creating a meeting point between supply and demand, EVOLIO Expo exhibitors have the opportunity to meet buyer delegations from European and non-European countries during the days of the event through a matching programme and one-to-one business meetings.

An important opportunity to establish direct contact with new potential customers and to develop a network of foreign distributors/importers.
