Food Pacific '86 Canada's first International Trade Show on Food will be held in Vancouver, B.C., August 29 to September 2, 1986. It is a market-oriented show with full government support, endorsed by the major food and beverage associations in Canada and will be important to Canadian companies interested in a larger share of the domestic market and the heavily-populated Pacific Coast market in the United States. It is expected that an entire range of products from about 30 exporting countries will be on display. It will provide an excellent opportunity to see the most sophisticated food products and packaging from Japan, Germany, Australia as well as the rest of the world. Short seminars will run in connection with the show to supply Canadian companies with information on how to export. For further information, contact Linda Keen, B.C.
