A new Brazilian trade show, Fruit & Log, has been scheduled for 8-10 September this year in a bid to draw the attention of producers, processors, distributors and importers worldwide to the country.

The show, named the International Fruits, Processing Technology and Logistics Trade Fair, is the result of a collaboration between Francal Trade Show and the Brazilian Fruit Institute (IBRAF).

IBRAF executive manager Valeska Oliveira said that the purpose of the event 'is to create a convergence point among all sectors involved in agribusiness and to concentrate the business demands'.
