Only those who are fully vaccinated or recovered from the coronavirus will be allowed to attend Fruit Logistica 2022, according to event organizers.

The fresh produce trade show is set as an in-person event from Feb. 9 to 11 in Berlin, Germany.

Because of regulations now in place, organizers said in a news release that only fully vaccinated or recovered participants will be allowed to enter the events “until further notice.”

That means, according to the release, that all of the participants must provide digital proof of their vaccination or recovered status to be able to enter the Berlin trade fair exhibition area.

“The decision regarding the entry regulation now provides clarity for all of the participants so that they can make further preparations for the trade fair,” Kai Mangelberger, the director of Fruit Logistica, said in the release.

As thing stands as of mid-November, the current regulations will enable the event to be held without any further restrictions being placed on exhibitors and visitors, according to the release.

“The core component of Fruit Logistica 2022 will be personal meetings within the international fruit trade industry at the event,” Mangelberger said in the release. “The new regulations will make this event safer and more intensive at the same time.”

Entry to the exhibition will only be possible with personalized tickets purchased in advance and online via the Fruit Logistica ticket shop. The ticket shop is expected to open at the end of November, according to the release.
