Restaurant & Bar Hong Kong returns in physical format
Restaurant & Bar Hong Kong (RBHK) has returned in physical format, sharing a location with Gourmet Asia (GA), Natural & Organic Asia (NOA) and Retail Asia Conference and Expo (RACE) at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC).
Organised by Informa Markets, RBHK has set its sights on finding ways to “leverage on its extensive industrial links, and partner with key stakeholders in the F&B industry to provide comprehensive networking opportunities for the visitors”.
Despite travel restrictions are still in place in Hong Kong, the exhibition hopes to attract over 10,000 local quality trade buyers such as F&B business owners, restaurateurs, chefs and hoteliers from the most prominent hotels, restaurants, clubs, bars and cafes to the show, with products showcased by over 300 brands and 6,000+ products from Denmark, Italy, Korea, UK, USA, and more.
Industry awards, such as Hong Kong Best Spirits Awards, Hong Kong Washu Awards and Italian Cocktail Challenge, have also been staged to showcase the success of various industry players.
The Wine Tasting Theatre – one of the renowned events also returned to the venue to gather experts and certified wine masters to share their extensive wine knowledge. These wine experts guided attendees to explore the world of wine through wine tasting and in-depth exchange.
In this edition, the organiser introduced “Beer Street” to the show floor, featuring an emphasis on local and foreign craft beer brands.
Ms Janice Lee, event director, hospitality, food & beverage – Hong Kong & Singapore, Informa Markets said: “I believe in-person networking is the key in developing successful business relationships and this is what exhibition is all about. Although technology helps people connect virtually, nothing beats meeting your industry peers face-to-face. As this is the most exciting F&B and retail tradeshow in Hong Kong this year, it’s our great honour to reopen doors to new business opportunities for the trade. We look forward to witnessing the return of all physical exhibitions.”
