Everything is ready at Rimini Fiera for the opening of the international trade show, a leader in gelato, pastry, and artisanal baking. The 37th Sigep will also host the simultaneous RHEX Rimini Horeca Expo.
The 2016 food made in Italy kicks off with its sweetest side. The grand global exhibition of artisanal confections will celebrate the Italian tradition in gelato, pastry, and baking, alongside the RHEX Rimini Horeca Expo, an event dedicated to hospitality and out-of-home dining trends, starting Saturday, January 23, and ending on January 27, 2016.
“SIGEP and RHEX,” comments business unit director Patrizia Cecchi, “enhance the market, beyond brands, by offering operators a comprehensive proposal that spans the entire sector and supports and anticipates the evolution of sales points. On the exhibition front, another high-profile edition is on the horizon with increased demand from companies and the presence of world-leading brands. The entire venue is fully occupied, and major international events, authentic shows that traditionally highlight the world’s leading artisanal confectionery schools and their masters, will be added.”

For 2016, a strong promotional investment has already been made towards Asia, North and South America.
To facilitate the arrival of buyers, Rimini Fiera has made direct agreements with key access points from the East and the USA, with Bologna’s Marconi airport (shuttles every 20 minutes) and Milan’s Malpensa airport with evening transfers, optimizing the visit to the fair from the early morning hours.
Rimini Fiera is also directly accessible by train thanks to the railway station (Milan – Bari) just 50 meters from the south entrance of the exhibition, where 16 trains stop
