The 45th edition will be held January 20 - 24 at the Rimini Convention Centre. The tradeshow is a showcase for excellence in the artisanal gelato, pastry, bakery, coffee and chocolate industries. The event is constantly growing, as shown by the numbers: 28 pavilions, within a renewed functional layout for the visit of buyers and operators, with over 1200 brands that will occupy the 129 thousand square meters of exhibition space. Thanks to the collaboration with the industries’ artisanal and industrial Associations, along with the national and global associations of gelato and pastry chefs, bakers, barmen and coffee specialists, the 2024 edition will foster new business and networking opportunities while providing insights into foreign markets. This is an inevitable path considering Sigep’s international projection confirmed by its recent expansion into Asian markets: in 2023, the greatest new development was opening in the Chinese market with Sigep China, held in the city of Shenzhen (bordering Hong Kong), as well as the launch of Sigep Asia in Singapore. The six “Arenas” dedicated to workshops, demonstrations and the most important international competitions in the industry have been confirmed.
