International Green Week (IGW) is a diverse exhibition displaying everything from alcohol and food, to agriculture and horticulture. Luxury products and new products are gathered from all over the world and are exhibited. This is one of the biggest events in the world related to agriculture.

Founded in 1926, this event has a long history of over 80 years. More than 72,000 exhibitors from 116 countries have presented to 29 Million professional and private visitors. It is also a place where producers and those concerned with market research are able to gain insights into the industry. Luxury food, kitchen tools, tea, agricultural equipment, agrochemicals, gardening tools, foliage plants, wine and other alcohol are all products on show at the exhibition.

The official partner country of the IGW 2015 is Latvia. The Baltic state will exhibit their local specialties. During the 10 day-long event, more than 100 producers from the Baltic state will introduce foods and luxury items.

The International Green Week is not just an event for trade professionals, food producers and marketers. It appeals to more than 400,000 visitors because of new products, food tastings and displays of live animals such as cows and sheep. In addition to the Federal Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection (BMEL), Green Peace Germany and the German World Hunger Help will engage in discussions on food safety and global food problems. Visitors will gain knowledge of where our food comes from as well as learning about the latest food trends.

The Floral Hall is a must-see for visitors every year. Alongside colorful garden arrangements, there are professional gardening shows, where visitors can learn about urban gardening. Exhibitors in the floral hall (Hall 9) will be small garden associations, the Central Horticultural Association, Zoologischer Garten Berlin, Green Berlin GmbH and the IGA Berlin 2017 GmbH.
