Posted on: 31/Jan/2012 2:28:34 AM
FHA2012 (Food&HotelAsia2012), Asia’s premier trade event for the foodservice and hospitality industry, is taking place at the Singapore Expo from 17 – 20 April 2012. The exhibition, organised by Singapore Exhibition Services (SES), consists of five specialised shows, namely FoodAsia, HotelAsia, Bakery&Pastry, HospitalityStyleAsia and HospitalityTechnology. Expected to feature more than 2,600 exhibitors from over 60 countries/regions, FHA2012 provides a good sourcing platform for business professionals to meet and exchange ideas, as well as generate new business leads. An impressive 47 group pavilions are also expected at FHA2012.
This event is important for the Indian domestic market as both the primary and processed food industries are expected to grow rapidly. The food sector is currently estimated to be worth over US$200 billion and is expected to reach US$300 billion by 2015. Growing incomes, falling poverty, changing lifestyles and companies racing to capture India’s middle and upper middle class consumers will cause the food market to grow dramatically in coming years.
With both China and India being the two biggest producers and potential consumers of food in the world, Asia will lead the world market in food production and consumption. This makes the biennial FHA2012 a much anticipated fair both local and international trade players as the exhibition will showcase a myriad of food and hospitality products from around the globe.
“More countries in Asia are liberalising their markets to facilitate foreign trade, marking an urgent need for the foodservice, hospitality and travel industries to enhance their product offerings and productivity to meet growing demands arising from changing consumer habits. With a remarkable contingent of top quality industry players coming from across the globe,it is evident that the five specialised shows together will present a timely and all-inclusive trading platform for international sellers and buyers,” affirms Mr Stephen Tan, Chief Executive Officer from show organiser, Singapore Exhibition Services (SES).
