There will be presentations about the chocolate culture, teas from Scotland , coffee from Jamaica and much more. Conferences and presentations will be available to attend for those who are really interested in finding out more.

It will be possible to see semi-automatic capsules packaging systems, and new jobs-creation opportunities, a new retail shop for fresh coffee, and an incredible selection of alternative drinks for the community of tea lovers.
