CFIA show director Sébastien Gillet has just announced the cancellation of the next edition of the CFIA show, due to take place next week...
He writes: " The CFIA Rennes, the leading event in the food industry, is due to open in a few days' time at the Parc des Expo Rennes Aéroport, for its 24th edition on September 29-30 and October 1.
Unfortunately, following the latest statement by Health Minister Olivier Veran and the lowering of the show's capacity to 1,000 people, the CFIA Rennes (September 29-30 & October 1) has been cancelled.
For you and for us, this announcement is a real heartbreak. The whole team was committed to organizing the event that the agri-food industry had been waiting for and deserved, in order to sustain the momentum of a sector that has never stopped, and that it was also important to thank.
I would also like to thank you personally. During this unprecedented period, your words of support have been a real strength to us over the last few months, as have your various expressions of confidence. Proof, if any were needed, that the food industry and the CFIA form one big, beautiful family.
The story we've been writing alongside you for the past 24 years is far from over, however, and the reunion will be all the sweeter for it. We look forward to seeing you again on June 8-9-10, 2021. In the meantime, the entire team is at your disposal to accompany you and answer any questions you may have.
Thank you for your trust and loyalty.
Take care of yourself,
Yours sincerely
Sébastien Gillet
Show Manager "
