Exclusive media screening of Woody Harrelson new film

The Natural & Organic Products Exhibition made its successful debut in June last year in the Sandton Convention Centre and now moves in the alternate year to Cape Town at the International Convention Centre from 14 to 16 October 2005.

Exhibition director David Wolstenholme says: “The exhibition has grown 300% since last year. What makes this upturn in the natural and organic market sector so unusual is that the major retailer groups and their customers are leading it; rather than the suppliers, as in other countries".

He adds: "The exhibition focuses on providing a sustainable lifestyle and through interactive exhibits, we hope to empower consumers to take responsibility and make small changes every day – buying organic vegetables and fruit, choosing free-range over battery-fed chickens, organic meats, moving to soy products, spring waters, natural and organic fruit juices, to using vitamins, natural supplements and remedies, choosing natural and organic cosmetics, clothing and even detergents. Every choice has a positive effect on the world at large. The exhibition also offers an opportunity to "indulge in wellness" for a few days”.

Some of the interactive platforms at the Exhibition include:

  • A small cinema where “Go Further” (the Ron Mann film featuring Woody Harrelson) shall be running continuously (this film is exclusive to the Natural & Organic Products Exhibition).
  • A Stellar Organics bar - serving sensory organic delights and organic wine.
  • A performance area featuring the Nia Technique, Capoeira, Tai Chi, Belly Dancing, Pilates, Qi Gong.
  • Interactive exhibits such as cooking demonstrations, food preparation and juicing.
  • Conference sessions on lifestyle, organics, natural and integrative medicine topics.

Concludes Wolstenholme: “What is clear is that change is with us and new wellness and organic trends look set to stay. The Natural & Organic Products Exhibition is about providing access to organic and complementary lifestyle information and encouraging people to make their own informed (lifestyle) choices."
