Several area businesses will be at the 2019 Royal Agricultural Winter Fair later this week in Toronto.

North Bay’s Bavarian Link Meat Products, Greenfoot, Just Shut Up and Try It Ferments and Quinta Quinoa are among the exhibitors being showcased in the Northern Ontario Agri-food Pavilion.

There’s also the Northern Ontario Brewers Alliance which includes North Bay’s New Ontario Brewing and South River’s Highlander Brew Company.

FedNor is investing $564,075 in support for the Northern Ontario Agri-food Pavilion.

“We are proud to partner with the Government of Canada and FedNor in this important initiative that shines a spotlight on Northern Ontario and creates opportunities for growth for participating businesses from across the region,” said Neil Fox, General Manager, Economic Partners Sudbury East/West Nipissing. “Through the pavilion, exhibitors will be able to develop new markets, boost sales, and make valuable contacts.”

Established in 1922, the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair features more than one million square feet of displays and competition facilities, attracting approximately 300,000 visitors each year.

The Northern Ontario Agri-food Pavilion is the largest exhibit at the fair, and provides participants from across the North with countless opportunities to establish new business contacts and expand their businesses.

The 10-day event opens Friday, November 1, 2019 at the Enercare Centre in Toronto.
