TAROPAK 2026 comes to a close: nearly 300 exhibitors and over 8,000 visitors at the joint trade fair event with POLAGRA
For three days, from 23 to 25 September, the Poznań International Fair hosted another edition of TAROPAK – the International Trade Fair of Packaging Technology and Labelling, held alongside the POLAGRA Trade Fair. This year’s edition brought together nearly 300 exhibitors and more than 8,000 visitors, including representatives of public administration, business, retail and international partners.
Packaging and food under one roof
The joint organisation of TAROPAK and POLAGRA made it possible to present the entire value chain – from food technologies and modern packaging and labelling solutions to logistics.
At the TAROPAK stands, visitors had the opportunity to discover the latest solutions in packaging, labelling and logistics, while also establishing direct contacts with manufacturers, buyers, importers and distributors representing these industries.
Business and public administration at the same table
This year’s edition saw an especially strong presence of public administration representatives.
The event was attended by, among others, Małgorzata Gromadzka, Secretary of State at the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, and Grzegorz Wrona, Undersecretary of State at the Ministry of State Assets.
Representatives of central and regional administration, the diplomatic corps and industry organisations were also present at the official opening of the trade fair.
Discussions focused on the specific challenges facing the sector, including security of supply, production costs, energy and the competitiveness of Polish businesses, including packaging and machinery manufacturers.
An international dimension
The international character of this year’s edition was strengthened by the Hosted Buyers Programme, which brought selected international buyers to Poznań who were interested in specific product categories – benefiting exhibitors at both TAROPAK and POLAGRA.
A look back at this year’s edition
TAROPAK 2026 demonstrated an industry that is diverse, yet increasingly aware of its shared goals.
On one side are packaging and technology manufacturers; on the other – food, retail, public administration and institutions, all of which are essential for further business growth. It is precisely this cooperation that forms the strength of the joint TAROPAK and POLAGRA trade fair event.
The next edition of TAROPAK will take place on 15–17 September 2027 in Poznań.
