On Thursday, 28th of January 28, the Polish Association for Greenery

Promotion (the organizational and promotional arm of the PNA – Polish

Nurserymen Association) and experienced Dutch flower exhibitions

organiser: BureauSierteelt.nl signed a document to start a new cooperation.

The 24 edition of GREEN IS LIFE exhibition in Warsaw, Poland, will

present flowers and indoor plants. International traders and growers of

horticultural products as well as Polish growers and traders will get the

opportunity to present their companies and products at Flower Expo

Poland, to be held from 1 till 3 September 2016.

GREEN IS LIFE & Flower Expo Poland

The Dutch company BureauSierteelt.nl - expert in organizing flower trade

shows together with SIGMA International have set up a platform in Poland for

traders and growers of flowers and indoor plants from all over the world. That

was due to signals from the international flower sector that there is great interest

in this promising market. This year Green is Life will be organised as a

combined fair for outdoor, garden plants, cut flowers and pot plants. The

combination of the two fairs shall be a natural enlargement of the fair GREEN

IS LIFE which up till now was focussed on garden plants, trees and landscaping

The fair is already well known on the market - in 2015 the fair had more than

16.000 visitors (6.500 professionals) and 260 exhibitors.

Promising Polish market

The Polish market for flowers and plants is growing. Since Poland became part

of the EU (2004) the export value has tripled. Growth of 18% was expected in

the period 2014-2018 but the trade has grown by more than 20% already over

the last two years. Poland has nearly 38 million consumers and people are really

fond of flowers and indoor plants. That creates strong and sustainable demand

for products. Besides the fact that Poland is an interesting market itself, it is

also an important transfer market to surrounding countries. Buyers from Russia,

Belarus, Ukraine and the Baltic states are coming in increasing numbers and

with substantial orders.

Supporting Partners

The Dutch Embassy in Warsaw is supporting partner of the new trade show and

will play a role in the side-program just like the Dutch association of exporters

(VGB). Florint International Florist Organisation and the Polish Association of

Florists (Stowarzyszenie Florystów Polskich) will also support the new

exhibition. SIGMA International is the co-organiser and exclusive PR and

media partner of the exhibition.
