The annual trade show for the region’s F&B industry is back in Bangkok with a bang this year. Marking the largest edition to date, THAIFEX – ANUGA Asia 2026 runs from May 26-30 at IMPACT Muang Thong Thani and comes at a time when sourcing decisions across the industry are becoming more critical and more time-sensitive.
Across Asia-Pacific, as supply chains struggle to adjust to ever-changing geopolitical developments, buyers have less room for error and decisions made earlier are carrying greater impact. Hence the importance of THAIFEX – ANUGA Asia 2026, which brings together 3,300+ exhibitors from 60+ countries and regions and over 88,000 trade visitors from 140 markets, to create one of the region’s largest points of interaction between buyers and suppliers.
Expect a showcase of ideas as products with 11 trend zones spanning alternative foods, clean label, Halal, organic and curated innovation showcases. Key programmed events include new-to-market reviews of products before they hit the shelves at scale, numerous curated tastings, and THAIFEX – ANUGA Startup, a platform for early-stage F&B ventures to pitch and exhibit live to investors and buyers. The event also sees the 12th staging of the Thailand Ultimate Chef Challenge contested by more than 400 professional and junior chefs from Asia.
