Gluten Free Food Fairs
Gluten free Food Fairs
Posted on the 01/08/2011 by

DS-gluten free loves nothing better than hitting the road and attending the many gluten free food fairs that are held across the country. For those of you who have never been to a food fair, they are organised by the local Coeliac UK group organiser. Lots of manufacturers attend and it’s a great opportunity to taste new foods, pick up tasty gluten free freebies and speak directly to the food companies.

Over the past few months we’ve visited many locations such as Edinburgh, York, Gloucester and Newmarket. It’s been a great opportunity to speak to the consumers, meet newly diagnosed coeliac patients and showcase our gluten free foods. Along the way we never missed out on a photo opportunity so we thought we’d share some snaps with our blog readers! 

If you visited one of the gluten free food fairs we attended we’d love to hear what you thought of our stand and whether you have any suggestions of what you’d like to see at upcoming food fairs – let us know what you think below!
