The doors open on 21 September at Excel London for a special 10th anniversary show of lunch! with over 6,000 attendees set to attend.

With more than 330 exhibitors, the two-day show will celebrate a decade at the heart of the UK’s food-to-go sector. Featuring key buyers and decision makers from the UK’s leading wholesalers, retailers, caterers, cafés and convenience stores, the show will include ‘everything that food-to-go operators need to run their businesses successfully’, according to Chris Brazier, group event director.

“Britain loves food-to-go. According to the latest stats, as a nation we made an estimated five billion food-to-go visits last year and we’re likely to make even more in the years ahead. Our growing appetite for high quality, good value, food-to-go meals, drinks and snacks has created huge opportunities for food-to-go operators and retailers. And they’ll find plenty of inspiration, new ideas and world-class innovations at lunch! 2017,” says Brazier.

“We made an estimated five billion food-to-go visits last year and we’re likely to make even more in the years ahead”
