"THAIFEX - ANUGA ASIA 2026" Reinforces Its Position as Asia's Leading F&B

The Department of International Trade Promotion (DITP), Ministry of Commerce, in collaboration with the Thai Chamber of Commerce and Koelnmesse, Germany, is preparing to host "THAIFEX - ANUGA ASIA 2026", Asia's most comprehensive and influential food and beverage trade exhibition. This year's edition will once again be held under the concept Beyond Food Experience, returning with a stronger proposition of "BIGGER, BETTER, BOLDER". The event will serve as a global platform for entrepreneurs and industry players to discover products, services and innovations, engage in business negotiations, build networks, and stay ahead of emerging trends — all aimed at elevating businesses to compete on the global stage.

Ms. Sunanta Kangvalkulkij, Director-General of DITP, stated that THAIFEX - ANUGA ASIA is widely recognised as a comprehensive sourcing platform for food products and innovations, effectively connecting high-quality buyers and sellers from around the world. This has led to meaningful business collaborations and global success. As such, the event has become a key destination for professionals across the food industry. This year, the three organisers have further elevated the event experience under the theme "BIGGER, BETTER, BOLDER", making it larger in scale, higher in quality, and more distinctive than ever before.

In terms of BIGGER, the exhibition space has been expanded with the addition of a new venue at Hall 4, IMPACT Forum, bringing the total exhibition area to 140,000 square metres. The event will be organised into nine key sectors: Drinks, Fine Food, Food Technology, Frozen Food, Fruits & Vegetables, Meat, Rice, Seafood, and Sweets & Confectionery. Each sector will showcase a diverse range of products, including general consumer goods, halal products, organic food, health and functional food, specialised nutrition, as well as future and sustainable food innovations, creating greater opportunities to meet evolving business needs.

Under the BETTER dimension, the event will continue to strengthen its role as a high-quality business matching platform, connecting buyers and sellers with strong potential. This year, participation has grown significantly, with over 3,000 companies from 60 countries confirmed to exhibit, spanning East Asia, ASEAN, Europe, the Americas, Latin America, the Middle East, and Australia.

For BOLDER, the event will offer more dynamic and inspiring experiences through a series of enhanced activities, including the THAIFEX - Anuga Trend Zone, showcasing the latest market trends; the tasteInnovation Show, highlighting outstanding innovative products; the Future Food Experience+ seminar programme; and THAIFEX - Anuga Startup, a dedicated space for emerging entrepreneurs. The event will also feature the renowned Thailand Ultimate Chef Challenge, an international culinary competition.

Recently, the organisers held an exhibitor briefing session for THAIFEX - ANUGA ASIA 2026 to provide detailed information on the overall event, participation guidelines, construction and booth design, traffic arrangements, and regulations. The session saw strong attendance from exhibitors, reflecting high interest and readiness for the upcoming event.

THAIFEX - ANUGA ASIA 2026 will take place from 26-30 May 2026 at IMPACT Challenger Halls 1-3, IMPACT Forum Hall 4, and IMPACT Exhibition Centre Halls 5-12, IMPACT Muang Thong Thani, Bangkok.
