The exhibition, consumer fair and food fiesta scheduled to be held within a span of three days, expects more than 30000 visitors to attend. The event also helps to interact with prospective buyers and also understand the new technology that is being used for the sector. Moreover, the event will feature all facets of the food and beverage industry and will include intricate details and the meticulous process that is required, for food products in order to make them available to the consumer.

This year’s expo has two separate pavilions from the largest global players in the industry – India and China. Over 120 companies from India and China will participate in this year’s event.

The event is a sold out exhibition. The organising committee has taken a very good initiative by providing a special pavilion for the university students and this is an ideal opportunity to showcase their innovative products to more than 30000 visitors.
