Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre
A Banquet of Delights
Successful food business from all over the world will gather in Hong Kong for the 21st HKTDC Food Expo in 2010. This pre-eminent event in the Asian fair calendar continues to grow from strength to strength, attracting more than 600 exhibitors from 24 countries and regions in 2009 – 23% more than the year before. Adding spice to the fair were exhibitors from new participating countries including Brunei, Chile, the Czech Republic, Indonesia, Mexico, New Zealand, Pakistan, Palestine, Peru and Singapore.
The fair is specially designed to meet the needs of different types of exhibitors and buyers by being divided into the Trade Hall and the Public Hall.
The Trade Hall: Time for
Trade The Trade
Hall is an excellent brand
building platform for international food retailers, suppliers, wholesalers,
brokers and sales agency representatives, and is grouped into pavilions in
which exhibitors can market their specialties. The Trade Hall is open to trade
buyers only on the first two days of the fair, while the final day is open to
the public.
The
Public Hall: Public Tastes Getting consumer feedback is vital to the
food business. These public visitors provide invaluable and instant feedback
which helps exhibitors refine and develop their products and promotions to
better reach their markets. The Public Hall is now open to exhibitors outside Hong Kong, giving
the event a truly international flavour and helping to attract even more
public visitors.
Food for Thought The Food Expo will include a series of sharing
sessions by food experts. There will also be cooking demonstrations by
well-known celebrity chefs, offering a special opportunity for product
launches and brand building to a large number of buyers.
