As the year draws to a close, the industry reaches another moment of recalibration. Markets continue to shift, sustainability expectations sharpen, and innovation becomes ever more central to competitiveness. Against this backdrop, the response to the ICDA EXPO 2026 has been remarkable.
More than 60% of exhibition stands are now sold, reflecting the sector’s appetite for a forum that brings clarity, direction, and genuine commercial opportunity.
Looking ahead, early 2026 marks the next major milestone.
Entries open in January for the world’s leading cheese and dairy awards—an annual benchmark of excellence that draws producers, retailers, technologists, and foodservice leaders from every corner of the global industry.
For many, this moment is the catalyst for new launches, new partnerships, and renewed ambition.
As we close the year, the message is simple: momentum is building.
Thank you to the partners, exhibitors, and supporters who have helped shape the platform so far.
The year ahead will define much of what comes next for the dairy sector - and we look forward to welcoming you into the heart of that conversation.
Wishing everyone across the industry a reflective, restorative, and inspiring festive season.
