46,484 trade visitors (2007: 45,469*) streamed into the Nuremberg Exhibition Centre from 21-24 February, 2008, to source information about the world market for organic products and natural personal care. The international share of attendance rose by 4 points to 37 %. The trade visitors came from 116 countries: after Germany, mainly from Austria, Poland, the Netherlands, Italy and France. Stricter admission conditions and their intensive control ensured another increase in the quality of attendance.

Besides an impressively strong presence of German organic producers (939), Italy (397), Spain (211), France (175) and Austria (112) were very well represented.
