What a food and beverage website should show
Retail buyers, importers and distributors check ingredients, pack sizes, allergens and certification on a company website before a fair, and return to it afterwards when comparing suppliers.
Product line pages
Give each product line its own page with clear ingredient lists, pack sizes and allergen details, so a retail buyer can check the facts before the fair.
Certificates and spec sheets
Put your certificates, such as organic, halal or IFS, and your spec sheets on a page that is easy to find and easy to download.
Phone-ready fair page
Test your site on a phone over a weak hall connection, then set up a QR code at your stand that opens a page made for the fair, with your range and price enquiry form.
Prompt buyer follow-up
