producer of the show, the food industry is the largest
packaging machinery buyer in Mexico.

marketplace and we look forward to bringing the industry
together for education, networking and strong
supplier/customer interaction.”

PACK Mexico and PROCESA provide national and international
professionals a forum to explore the best options in
machinery and consumables for some of the most competitive
industries worldwide. In 2006, 30,000 attendees came to the
event to find solutions.
"These
individuals return year after year to EXPO PACK Mexico and

need,” adds Yuska. “In fact, our attendee research indicates
that 85% of the attendees found the products or services
they were looking for.”
