Germany’s fine food sector turns its gaze to Hamburg in January. Buyers, producers and specialty retailers gather over two days to sample ranges and progress purchasing decisions.
Dates and venue in Hamburg
GenussGipfel 2027 runs from 10 to 11 January at Messe Hamburg and takes place alongside Nordstil Winter. Messe Frankfurt handles production with the brand owner Corpus Culinario e.V.
Profile of participants at this edition
Exhibitors include wineries and spirits producers, delicatessen makers, confectionery brands and specialty suppliers. Visitors are primarily trade buyers from gourmet retail, hospitality buyers and independent wine merchants. The selection favours demonstration and tasting formats that support buyer assessment.
Key figures for GenussGipfel 2027
This edition lists 100 exhibitors and 400 professional visitors. Those numbers reflect the focused, trade-oriented layout of the event.
Preparing B2B prospecting at GenussGipfel 2027
Set clear objectives before attending. Prioritize exhibitors by product type and schedule short tasting meetings rather than informal walkthroughs. Bring a concise commercial packet with lead times, pricing bands and minimum order quantities to speed negotiations. For hospitality buyers, include recommended retail margins and shelf life details to aid rapid approval.
Use Messe Hamburg’s meeting slots and leverage tasting feedback for immediate follow up. A one-page product sheet and a purchase-ready offer increase the chance of closing orders during the fair.
What the previous edition demonstrated and event management
Nordstil Winter 2026 introduced the GenussGipfel as a curated addition for kitchen and gourmet products. Highlights included the Product of the Year voted by attendees and the Delicacy of the Year chosen by Corpus Culinario members. The joint effort of Messe Frankfurt and Corpus Culinario aims to maintain a professional buyer-seller environment.
Final recommendation and official link
If your commercial focus is gourmet retail or horeca, travel with a compact commercial dossier and book meetings in advance to make the most of the two days.
