Anuga Meat is being held in Halls 5, 6 and 9 of the Cologne fair grounds. Comprising the sub-segments sausages (Halls 5.2 and 6), red meat (Halls 6 and 9) and poultry (Hall 9) it offers trade buyers everything they could need under one roof, say the organisers.
The trade fair is open daily from Saturday 7 October to Wednesday 11 October from 10am to 6pm.
