Its 20th anniversary the exhibition celebrates with a record number of exhibitors – 242 participating companies. Representatives of 36 countries of the world have joined the exhibition for the first time. Traditionally the majority of these companies represent Europe (57 per cent) and the CIS (15 per cent).

In order to encourage the application of advanced equipment and production technologies in the regions, the WorldFood Azerbaijan and AgriHort Azerbaijan exhibitions have organized information tours for entrepreneurs from Barda, Gabala, Ganja, Lankaran, Saatli, Sabirabad, Khachmaz and other districts. In general, participants demonstrate their products in three main areas: food industry (WorldFood), beverages (WorldDrink) and food technology (WorldFoodTech). The exhibition displays meat, fish, confectionery and bakery products, as well as beverages, tea, coffee, fruits and vegetables, dairy, and oil and fat products.
