Organic Food Gaining Popularity in Germany
February 6, 2003Advertisement
German consumers eat more organic food. Representatives of the world’s most important organic trade fair, Nuremberg’s "BioFach" reported that turnover in bio-produce rose by 10 percent to about 3 billion euro ($ 3.3 billion) in 2002. However, organic food only has a world market share of 2.3 percent. At "Bio Fach" (Feb.13 – 16), more than 2000 suppliers will be offering their products, ranging from natural food and organic cosmetics to textiles and housewares.
