Members are being supported at stand level with branded assets to reinforce recognition of Love Irish Food and help drive consumer engagement with member brands.
This expanded presence underscores Love Irish Food’s ongoing commitment to championing Irish producers, while providing a powerful platform for members to showcase innovation, connect with consumers and drive trial and sampling at Bord Bia Bloom this year.
Commenting, Conor Kilduff, executive director of Love Irish Food, said: “Bord Bia Bloom is a key date in the calendar for Love Irish Food and our members.
“This year’s increased presence reflects the continued growth of the organisation and a response to demand from Irish brands to connect directly with consumers.
“We are particularly focused on enhancing our visibility and supporting our members on the ground, ensuring they stand out, sharing their unique brand stories and showcasing the quality and innovation that defines Irish food and drink. Bloom provides a unique platform to bring those brands to life.”
