This also gives international companies an undisputed entry point to the thriving and lucrative market of Indonesia’s hospitality and F&B industries,” she said.

Besides the various F&B classes and events, FHI 2022 also promotes local F&B products; one of which is coffee. Through the Coffee Village area by the SCAI, visitors and the spectators of the coffee competition will have the opportunity to taste the coffee brewed by the contestants. Daryanto Witarsa, Chairman of SCAI 2022, said that FHI as the biggest trade exhibition for hospitality and F&B products in Indonesia is the right place for presenting the Coffee Village. “There will be an all-star experience bar at Coffee Village, where all the contestants must serve coffee to give visitors the precious experience of tasting their freshly brewed coffee. The visitors can then purchase the served coffee products at the product showcase area,” he commented.

The FHI also aims to support the roadmap to Making Indonesia 4.0 by 2030 by developing the F&B sector, which can contribute consistently and significantly to the national non-oil-&-gas GDP. Furthermore, FHI 2022 presents the FHI Digital Showroom, which is a digital catalog of the F&B and hospitality suppliers, supported by Saladplate.
