Retailers, importers, growers, exporters and category leaders from across the fresh produce business will come together in Barcelona on 30 June and 1 July for Fruitnet Tropicals Congress – a high-level forum focused on the future of the fast-growing tropical fruit category.

From avocados and mangoes to pineapples and emerging exotic categories, the European tropicals business is evolving rapidly – and Fruitnet Tropicals Congress 2026 is set to put the industry’s biggest opportunities and challenges firmly under the spotlight.

The event will bring together a select group of senior executives and decision-makers from across the international supply chain for a day of insight, debate and high-level networking. Attendees will have the opportunity to connect directly with leading retailers, importers, distributors, growers and exporters shaping the future of the category, including companies such as Fresh Del Monte, Dole, Fyffes, Rabobank, Aldi, Tesco, ICA Gruppen, Montosa, Cultivar, CMR Group, Alcoaxarquía, Trops, Reyes Gutiérrez, Jalaram Fruit, Nature’s Pride, Westfalia, Special Fruit and Greenyard.

While tropicals are outperforming other fresh fruit categories, the business faces significant challenges. Volatile supply chains, competition from other, less healthy foods and the move towards net zero are creating new opportunities for closer collaboration between different players in the value chain.

With sustainability, sourcing, ripening, category management, consumer trends and supply chain resilience all rising up the agenda, the congress aims to provide a platform for the sector’s leading players to exchange ideas, build partnerships and help define the next phase of growth for tropical fruit in Europe.
