Manx Produce Hits The Big Stage

Manx food and drink offering will be hitting the big stage this week at the International Food and Drink Event in London.

Six of the island’s renowned food and drink producers will join 1,500 exhibitors from over 60 countries at the Excel Centre London. 

2025 marks the second year, Business Isle of Man will be attending the event alongside industry in a jointly-funded initiative.

The Big Stage

The Fynoderee Distillery will share an Isle of Man Drinks Stand with Okell’s Brewery.

Okell’s is celebrating its 175th anniversary this year with a special edition Smoked Porter, while Fynoderee is launching a new Signature Gin at the exhibition.

Isle of Man Creamery will take its finest cheese to the Cheese and Dairy Pavilion.

And for the first time at IFE, attendees will be able to visit an Isle of Man Speciality Foods stand shared by Berries, PopCornaa, and Isle of Man Salt Co.

International Food and Drink Event

The return to IFE comes after success at last year’s event, where exhibitors acquired orders to the value of £600k and received recognition through the World Food Innovation Awards 2024.

This year, Business Isle of Man and Manx producers are coming together to host a special presentation at the IFE New Products Tasting Theatre.

The event runs from today (March 17) until Wednesday (March 19).
