Vinordic opens for consumers

Vinordic is the biggest wine and spirits fair in Scandinavia. It takes place on April 24-27 and is a showcase and contact forum for the wine trade in Scandinavia. In previous editions of the event the general public has been admitted to the event but this year, due to a tightening of the Swedish alcohol control regulations, it was only by a whisker it was finally allowed. The public will now be allowed in the last day of the four and will have to buy “tasting tickets” at the entrance that they can redeem for samples at the exhibitors’ stands. Fondberg & Co, Sweden’s second largest importer, has therefore decided not to participate in the fair since they only want to take part in consumer oriented events.
