13.03.2019 Food Innovation Australia Limited (FIAL)

For the first time, FIAL is pleased to participate in THAIFEX “the biggest Food and Beverage Tradeshow in South-East Asia”. Held in Bangkok from 28th May - 1st June 2019. Thaifex is in its 16th year and is expecting to attract 60,000+ trade visitors from all over the world and with the opportunity to facilitate introductions to 3,000+ hosted buyers.

Thaifex 2019 attracts local and international visitors including retailers, supermarkets, hotels, restaurants, importers, distributors and more! FIAL continuous to lead the way in facilitating opportunities for Australian exporters and in identifying emerging new markets. FIAL will again provide the opportunity for Australian food & beverage suppliers to showcase their products to international buyers, a must show if you’re looking for trade opportunities in the Asian and Indochine regions.

Why Thaifex?

Last year the tradeshow covered 11 halls across 107,000 sqm of exhibition area, attracted 62,039 trade visitors and 2,537 exhibitor companies from 150 countries. In addition, international hosted buyers with over 2,100+ relevant retailers, importers, distributors and eCommerce organisations participating.

The World Economic Forum predicts that by 2020, ASEAN will become the world’s fifth largest economy. More than 60 million households in ASEAN are part of the ‘consuming class’, with incomes exceeding the level at which they can begin to make significant discretionary purchases. That number could almost double to 125 million households by 2025, making ASEAN a pivotal consumer market of the future.
