6 November 2024 - Kent Showground
With meticulous planning there will be space for all exhibitors creating a dynamic, buzzing atmosphere, a great place for your customers to meet and socialise. I urge you to continue to support the National Fruit Show to make it an event worthy of our industry and as the newly appointed Chairman I am deeply grateful for your dedication and continued commitment to the show.
I look forward to meeting you all on 6th November and witnessing the positive impact our changes have made to the ongoing success of the showcase of our industry’s innovation and excellence.
