The third edition of Hotel, Hospitality & Food (HHF) Asia, South Asia’s international food, hotel supplies and services exhibition, will take place from October 16 to 18, 2015 at the Sri Lanka Exhibition & Convention Centre in Colombo.

HHF Asia is an exclusive professional trade forum designed to cater to the needs of the fast-growing hotel, hospitality and tourism industries and is patronised by leading organisations in the South Asian region and industry professionals.

Organised by MP Events Lanka, HHF Asia will bring together exhibitors from varying subsets within the hotel, hospitality and food industry. This year’s exhibitors range from architecture, design and development, bakery equipment, laundry and hygiene, furnishings, landscaping, ITC, sports and adventure, training experts, electrical and electronics and much more.

Endorsing this event are the Sri Lanka Convention Bureau (SLCB), National Chamber of Exporters (NCE), Sri Lanka Association of Professional Conference, Exhibition & Event Organisers (SLAPCEO), The Hoteliers’ Association of Sri Lanka (THASL), All Ceylon Bakery Owners’ Association, Green Building Council of Sri Lanka (SLGBC), Association for Small & Medium Enterprises in Sri Lanka (ASMET). The Platinum sponsor is Hospitality.lk while the Supporting Media is 21 food.com.

The 2015 edition also focuses on knowledge building and value addition through workshops and seminars curated in line with the needs of today’s growing industry. Seminars on green building, leadership in the hospitality industry, digital marketing as well as a daily Colombo tea and herb tour are some of the fringe events scheduled.

A seminar conducted by Aspire International Talent Development Institute and titled ‘A Leader Beyond Hospitality Borders’ will be held at 11:30 a.m. on Friday, October 16, while ‘Digital Marketing Simplified for the Hospitality Industry’ is another seminar scheduled for 10:30 – 11:30 a.m. on October 17 and is organised by INFOLOGIX.

‘Build Green with GBCSL’ is seminar organised by the Green Building Council of Sri Lanka and will be held on Sunday, October 18 from 10:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., while Tea and Herb Company will conduct daily workshops on all days on the theme ‘The Colombo Tea and Herb Tour’.

“Over the years, Hotel, Hospitality & Food Asia has established itself as the most comprehensive sourcing platform in Sri Lanka and grown to be one of the leading international business-to-business hospitality and food trade show in the country. This year’s edition will build on the success of the previous shows while the exhibition’s visitor campaign is targeted at professionals engaged in hotels, hospitality and tourism projects in Sri Lanka and South Asia,” said MP Events Lanka (Pvt.) Ltd Director Emile Gunesekera.

“With increased economic and trading activity, a global spotlight on Sri Lanka’s tourism, which has led to increasing tourist arrivals and Colombo gradually transforming into a pivotal air hub for regional trade, Sri Lanka is the instinctive choice for an industry event such as this,” he added.

With wide-ranging stalls encompassing all subsets within the industry, key industry professionals and a host of activities, HHF Asia 2015 will be a launch pad for networking, forging new partnerships and cross-industry collaboration. Visitors to the exhibition are expected to comprise hotel and resort owners, general managers, banquet managers, executive chefs, industry importers, distributors and wholesalers, food service and hospitality consultants, hotel suppliers and more.
