Südback is a specialist trade fair for the bakery and confectionery industries, bringing together bakers, confectioners, manufacturers and suppliers to explore new products, technologies and concepts. The event covers the complete working environment of professional baking, combining machinery and equipment with raw materials, ingredients, shop fittings, sales solutions and services.
Südback combines technology and craft
For bakery professionals, Südback provides a comprehensive view of developments across both production and retail. Machinery and technical equipment cover areas including dough preparation and processing, ovens, refrigeration, fermentation and other production processes, while ingredients and raw materials provide inspiration for developing breads, pastries, cakes and other baked products.
A defining feature of Südback is its strong connection with the practical craft of baking. Its programme includes specialist forums, demonstrations and competitions where bakers and confectioners can exchange knowledge, see techniques in action and discover new ideas. The Bakers’ Trend Forum and Confectioners’ Trend Forum provide platforms for presentations, demonstrations and discussion around current industry topics.
The event also looks beyond production to the way bakery products are presented and sold. Shop fittings, sales equipment, coffee technology, snacks and concepts for cafés and bakery stores reflect the increasing importance of foodservice and out-of-home consumption to bakery businesses.
For industrial and craft bakers alike, Südback offers opportunities to compare equipment, discover ingredients and understand developments affecting the wider sector. Its combination of machinery, ingredients, skills, retail concepts and professional education makes it particularly relevant to businesses seeking practical solutions while remaining connected to changing bakery trends and customer expectations.
