FoodAsia 2008

Singapore - This is touted as Asia’s Largest International Food and Hospitality Event. It aims to provide a platform for buyers and sellers to meet and discover new businesses.

With an ever-expanding Asian F&B industry, this region is an important market for your business. FoodAsia2008 serves as the complete food and beverage marketplace, gathering thousands of buyers and sellers under one roof -- such as Australia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand fighting for the title of Asia Barista Champion.

This group of National Champions will then be judged by a panel of experienced international judges. The winner will be crowned as the champion of the first Asia Barista Championship and there are also awards given to "Best Espresso", "Best Latte Art" and "Best Blended Signature Beverage". The Asia Barista Championship is a regional event that seeks to recognize baristas as a professional career in the region as well as develop the growth and quality of gourmet coffee. This inaugural event is co-organized by Singapore Exhibition Services, Kerry Ingredients Asia and Singapore Coffee Association.

2008 will see the return of the FHA Imperial Challenge, showing Chinese cuisine at its best. This ‘live’ competition will have talented teams from China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore and Taiwan cook up a storm in this ‘survival of the fittest’ battle. Awards will be given to the ‘FHA2008 Imperial Challenge Champion Team’ as well as ‘Best Imperial Chef’.
