Ostro Business at SIAL 2016

Ostro Business and Ostrotrade were visiting the SIAL fair in Paris during october 17th-18th in order to keep up to date with the latest trends and novelties in the food industry.

The main trends this time were for instance drinks with new natural ingredients, such as cocoa, chia and herbs. Also the organic and vegan trend was still well visible. We were delighted to note that Finland had a quite good visibility with a berry products theme at the national stand, and Valio dairy products well visible in the competition for innovative products. There clearly are export markets for food products from Finland, but persistent work is required as always.
