Europe’s biggest trade show for natural and organic products returns in July.

Natural & Organic Products Europe, which takes place at ExCel London on July 7-8, will attract expert speakers in the industry who will talk about the newest trends and latest research on natural and organic health.

More than 700 exhibitors from around the world will attend the event, which will showcase innovative products that can make a significant difference to independent pharmacists’ businesses.

The show will give you the chance to network with over 10,000 decision-makers who are interested in purchasing natural and organic products.

There will be hundreds of exciting new product launches from around the world and informative seminars from well-known industry figures.

More than 10,500 visitors are expected to attend the two-day show, with over 700 companies promoting a range of natural, organic, Fairtrade, free-from, vegan and vegetarian brands.

For more than two decades, the show has helped thousands of companies set up distribution networks and retail deals around the world.

The show’s independent retailers networking lounge will give independents the chance to network with other retailers and talk about the issues – and there will also be a series of roundtable discussions, one-to-one meetings with a seminar speaker and an eCommerce drop-in clinic.

One roundtable discussion will be led by Ruth Noah, an independent retailer and committee member ofthe National Association of Health Stores. She will chair a discussion on how retailers can become more sustainable.

In another roundtable discussion, Veganuary’s Zoe West will chair a talk on what retailers can do to maximise their visibility and increase their footfall during Veganuary 2021.

This is a must-attend event. Visit www.naturalproducts.co.uk and register your place.

Ricola launches Soothe & Clear into UK market

Ricola is launching its Soothe & Clear range to shake up the UK medicated confectionery market. 

The new range of throat soothing lozenges contain the Ricola 13-herb extract in combination with natural ingredients such as Fair-Trade honey, lemon juice, echinacea and natural menthol.

According to research conducted by Ricola, almost half of medicated confectionery shoppers surveyed admitted that they ‘struggle to find throat sweets that appeal to them.’

The medicated confectionery category is worth over £100m annually, more than twice the size of the market for pharyngeal (licensed throatcare) products, so it’s a significant opportunity for retailers. Visit them on stand J20.
