The Bakery section complements the Horex exhibition, entitled 'Everything for hotels, restaurants and supermarkets'. During the event from 5 to 8 November, pavilion 10 of the Atakent exhibition centre will be filled with the aroma of freshly baked foods, as companies will have live demonstrations of their products in action, cooking at their stand.
