SIAL Paris 2026, one of the world’s largest international food industry exhibitions, is taking place in Paris on 17–21 October, bringing together producers, importers, distributors, retail chains and industry organisations from around the globe, the Union of Dairy Enterprises of Ukraine (UDEU) reports.
The Ukrainian national pavilion
UDEU is taking part in the Ukrainian national pavilion, which brings together seven Ukrainian Business Support Organisations (BSOs) representing different food industry sectors.
This year, UDEU is represented at SIAL Paris 2026 by:
- Nataliia Haidt, UDEU Executive Director;
- Krystina Shpak, UDEU Deputy Executive Director;
- Maksym Fastieiev, Adviser to the UDEU Executive Board.
Products from member companies
The UDEU stand showcases products from four Ukrainian dairy companies, all members of the union:
- PrJSC «Bila Tserkva Agro-Industrial Group»;
- National Cheese Company (KOMO brand);
- PrJSC «Ternopil Dairy Plant» («Molokiya» brand);
- Ukrproduct Group.
Other UDEU members are exhibiting at their own stands, presenting a wide range of Ukrainian dairy products to international buyers, importers and distributors.
During SIAL Paris 2026, the union is also focusing on building international business contacts, finding new opportunities for Ukrainian exporters, developing cooperation with European industry associations and introducing international partners to Ukraine’s dairy production capabilities.
Ukrainian Dairy Exporters Catalogue
An important joint initiative was the preparation of the Ukrainian Dairy Exporters Catalogue, to which UDEU also contributed.
Prepared for the first time for SIAL Paris 2026, the catalogue features 31 Ukrainian companies and 45 production facilities, including their export capabilities and status of approval for the European Union (EU) market.
Participation in SIAL Paris 2026 is part of the union’s systematic work to expand the presence of Ukrainian dairy products on foreign markets, develop international cooperation and support the integration of Ukraine’s dairy sector into the European market.
UDEU invites visitors to its stand: Hall 1 | Stand A218, Paris Nord Villepinte.
Ukraine’s dairy industry continues to work, grow and demonstrate its export potential internationally.
