The trade show is the most important event in the field of greenhouse horticulture in Mexico. While the show is organized in the central region of Mexico, it also focuses on development in the entire country. As well as this, the event has proven to contribute to horticulture business development in North America in general, as the event brings together both international and local stakeholders and suppliers.

Mexico is playing a key role in the North American greenhouse industry, as the country is housing thousands of low, medium and high tech greenhouse operations that enable year round production for large scale greenhouse vegetable operations from the U.S. and Canada. Over the last couple of years, these producers have established a sustainable production scheme, feeding millions of North Americans with a continuous supply of high quality greenhouse vegetables during the winter time. As the demand for this year-round supply rises every year, Mexican growers are investing in efficient greenhouse technology to increase their production.
