Industry Relevance 

For nearly 50 years, SITEVI has been at the centre of innovation and research in agriculture with a focus on winegrowing, olives and vegetables. The exhibition arrives every two years at the Parc des expositions de Montpellier to showcase the next generation of tools, equipment and solutions to an eager audience. SITEVI happily marries a modern procurement platform with a world-class information platform led by international experts. The strategic location right at the heart of the Mediterranean basin and Europe contributes to the exhibition’s success and longevity. 

The exhibition portion is split into three larger designated areas: 

• Vine & Wine: Grape harvesting machines; Oenology, wine-making; Vine nurseries; Filling and bottling;
• Fruit & vegetables; Olives: Specific equipment for fruit & vegetable farming; Specific equipment for olive farming; Fruit & vegetable nurseries; Olive tree nurseries;
• All 3 sectors: Traction; Tilling; Sprayers; Parts and components; Irrigation; Grafting, tying; Crop protection, fertilisers; Packaging; Handling; Rural and forestry areas; Renewable energy; Producer advice centre 

SITEVI stays on top of current conversations and concerns. Wine growers find the resources and support in the form of workshops on topics such as fighting vineyard decay, solutions for climate risks, reducing the environmental footprint of vineyards and improving the overall yield. 

Who Are You Going to Meet? 

Fimer, Dragon Broillard, Europress, Frostbsuter, Decalex, Gener, Kocide, Lambox, McCormick and MONDO & SCAGLIONE make up only a small fraction of the brands that regularly make their appearance at the exhibition. SITEVI has a wide appeal when it comes to trade visitors. The vast majority at 49% are winegrowers and winemakers. These are then followed by equipment manufacturers, distributors, producers, trade associations, training and services providers. The last groups with smallest concentrations are wine traders and winery managers, fruit and vegetable farmers, and olive farmers. 

SITEVI is a key meeting point for decision makers in Europe with the most visitors from Spain, Italy, Portugal, Germany and the UK (outside of France, of course). Nevertheless, the exhibition has a wide reach and brings in buyers from as far away as Tunisia, Israel and the USA. 

Additional Value of Attending 

SITEVI is a gathering that puts innovation at the forefront, bringing together startups that facilitate the digital transformation of the vine-wine, olive, and fruit & vegetable production industries. This year's Start-up Village is in collaboration with La Ferme Digitale and Agri Sud-Ouest Innovation, demonstrating a commitment to supporting these sectors in their development. Investors will have a large selection of newcomers to investigate: Numeric Wave, Aptimiz, Azuvia, Lexagri, Chouette, 3D Aerospace and Elzeard.

Hosting tastings is one of the exhibition’s cornerstones.
