Episode 44. Taste & Trade Mexico City, 07 -10 October, 2025 with Mario A. Castillo
Description
What happens when food meets purpose on a global scale? In this episode, we sit down with Mario A. Castillo, founder of Taste & Trade Mexico City, to explore how Canadian food businesses can grow beyond borders into a vibrant, circular, and deeply sustainable food system in Mexico City.
More than a trade mission, this is a cultural and culinary awakening. From October 7–10 2025, Canadian CPG leaders will join Mario on a journey through Latin America's premier food innovation event, and beyond.
Key Highlights:
A vision for food as life energy, cultural connection, and community empowerment.
Why circularity and sustainability in Mexico's food systems can ripple back to inspire change and innovation in Canada.
What participants can expect: VIP access to the Food Tech Summit & Expo 2025, guided culinary immersion, B2B matchmaking, and more.
Whether you are in R&D, Innovation, a brand owner, or ingredient supplier, this is your invitation to connect, expand, and lead with purpose.
Tune in to hear Mario’s inspiring mission and why now is the time to rethink how we grow markets, honour Indigenous wisdom, and innovate for both people and planet.
