Thaifex — World of Food Asia 2010 rescheduled

Monday 26 April 2010 17:42
Organized in conjunction with World of Halal, more than 20,000 trade visitors from around the world were expected to attend the number one food and beverage trade show in Southeast Asia from 12 to 16 May 2010.

”The difficult decision to reschedule the event was made after much discussion and feedback from the industry. Our purpose, as always, is to ensure that participants’ experience at Thaifex — World of Food Asia is smooth and safe.” said Mr Michael Dreyer, Vice President Asia Pacific of organizer Koelnmesse.

The organizers will continue to monitor and report the progress of the situation for the safety of its exhibitors and visitors. IMPACT Exhibition Centre is currently unaffected due to its location away from Central Bangkok.

A stronger and more enhanced communications campaign will be undertaken in the coming months to further increase visitor attendance to the trade fair. In addition participants will continue to receive updates, be informed of the new trade fair dates and the developments in Bangkok and Europe.

Exhibitors can expect to receive more information on new sea and air freight deadlines within the week as necessary steps are being taken with the appointed freight forwarder to ensure a smooth transition. Exhibitors’ whose exhibits are currently enroute to Bangkok are encouraged to contact the organizers who will co-ordinate complimentary storage arrangements accordingly.

The organizers assure all exhibitors and visitors that the same high standard and quality of the trade fair will be maintained. Exhibitors are further assured that the same response can be expected from all Thaifex — World of Food Asia trade fairs.
