ISM 2021 [ABGESAGT] in Köln

ISM is the world's leading trade fair for sweets and snacks. It takes place annually in Cologne and offers in a worldwide unique constellation innovations and impulses as well as the perfect environment for excellent networking. The first event took place in 1971. The big world market leaders as well as small and medium-sized companies and start-ups can be found in the exhibitor profile of ISM. As the trade fair is only open to trade visitors, it is characterised by a pronounced professional character. When buying tickets, a trade visitor qualification must be presented - this way exhibitors benefit from a unique and business oriented audience. This makes ISM the most important information and order platform for the snacks and sweets industry.

In 2021 ISM will again be the hub of the confectionery industry. Last year it attracted around 37,000 trade visitors from 148 countries, who came to the 1,774 exhibitors from all over the world - 87% of them international - to find out about the latest trends and innovations in the industry. The exhibition area of 120,000 m² made it possible to appropriately celebrate the 50th anniversary of the event. The product ranges for ISM 2021 are:

• Chocolate, chocolate products
• Confectionery
• Fine baked goods
