Great turn out at the natural & organic products expo

It was great to see the huge public interest at the Natural and Organic Product Expo held in Cape Town recently. The show continues to grow every year and this was no exception. What struck me was not only natural and organics increasingly entering the mainstream in South Africa, but also the number of web-based natural products information and sales sites represented at the show. It was impressive.

Three of our members - Olive Workshop, Ecoso and WildFoods exhibited there and it was a real eye opener for them. It is such a great opportunity to to the ultimate market research on your products - to stand up in front of the general public and listen to their comments and suggestions. They all did a great job.
