The Sunshine State’s biggest food trade event is returning in April with a fresh face and a line-up designed to cater to the Queensland market and the businesses within it.
As a result of extensive research by organisers Diversified Communications, the show will be reinvigorated in 2016 with a key focus on areas of most importance to those in Queensland’s food industry. A strong local approach coupled with the best of the national industry has resulted in an event with a focus on the healthy, fresh food options that customers are demanding.
The food industry in Queensland is currently sustaining one of the highest growth rates in all states. Supporting Queensland businesses to harness this prosperity is a key objective of Fine Food Queensland.
Event Director Minnie Constan says that by providing access to both local and national experts, new products and innovations, the 2016 event has been designed to maximise opportunities for businesses to do business on the show floor, as well as stay ahead of industry trends from around the state, country and the world.
“We’ve listened to what people want from this show, and we’ve reinvigorated it as a result,” she said. “The show has a fresh feel, which is a perfect match for our focus on fresh, healthy food and eating. From direct access to the state’s best growers at Fresh Produce Lane to the experts at Talking Food Stage, who will be translating international trends into Queensland’s needs, Fine Food Queensland provides access to all facets of the industry under one roof. It’s the perfect opportunity for those in foodservice and hospitality to learn, network and grow their businesses.”
Fine Food Queensland is strictly a trade-only event, catering for Queensland’s burgeoning foodservice, hospitality and food retail industries. The show brings together more than 200 exhibitors and 5,000 visitors to do business, and to celebrate new ideas and innovation in the food industry. Featuring the latest products and equipment, Fine Food Queensland also offers a comprehensive program of educational sessions and business discussions.
