We have been monitoring the situation closely, we are in daily communication with the senior management of Messe Frankfurt with whom we are closerly observing the trade shows already taking place in Germany and learning from those. We are very grateful for the encouragement and support we have received from all partners and we are looking forward to welcoming you back to the event,” said Natasha Berrow, group director food at Informa Markets.
