13 Mar 2020 --- Several global F&B trade shows have been rescheduled or indefinitely postponed due to health concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. Many companies are concerned about contracting the virus within typical event parameters – asymptomatic transmission via large crowds of people handshaking and food sampling within confined quarters. Affected events thus far include Vitafoods Europe, Natural Products Expo West, CPhI Japan, CFIA and The Ingredients Show. Also this week, Biocatalysts have postponed the opening of its new enzyme manufacturing facility.
