Multifunctionele landbouw
Het RMV Festival brengt extra sfeer op de beursvloer. Tussen de stands door geniet je van een hapje en drankje bij gezellige foodtrucks en kraampjes. Denk aan goede koffie, iets lekkers van de grill en een gemoedelijke sfeer waar je collega’s en bekenden tegenkomt.
RMV is niet alleen zakendoen, maar ook beleven. Het RMV Festival zorgt voor die typische ‘RMV-sfeer’ waar de agrarische sector zich thuis voelt.
