NEW DELHI — Indusfood 2025, the country's farm-to-fork trade exhibition, will
kick off on Wednesday in Greater Noida on the outskirts of the national
capital, with the participation of over 2,300 exhibitors from over 30
countries, the Ministry of Food Processing Industries said on Tuesday.
The integrated trade fair will host over 7,500
international buyers and 15,000 Indian trade visitors, who are expected to be
present during the show in the sprawling exhibition space of over 120,000 sq.m.
Apart from the eighth edition of the Indusfood F&B
trade fair at India Expo Mart, Greater Noida from January 8-10, the Trade
Promotion Council of India (TPCI) is also organising the fourth edition of
Indusfood Manufacturing (covering food processing technology, packaging
technology, ingredients and hospitality technology) and the inaugural edition
of Indusfood Agritech (showcasing agricultural technology, fisheries
technology, dairy & poultry farming technology). The latter two events
are scheduled for January 9-11, at Yashobhoomi Dwarka, New Delhi.
The event format of Indusfood 2025, with these three
concurrent trade fairs, has been designed to foster cross-domain synergies
across the farm-to-fork value chain. It offers networking opportunities,
facilitates meaningful business expansion, and provides valuable market
insights through targeted knowledge-sharing sessions. This integrated approach
ensures that participants can discover innovative solutions, forge strategic
partnerships, and stay ahead in the evolving global F&B landscape, the
official statement said.
The 2025 edition will witness participation from 35
international chefs and 100 Indian delegates, alongside professionals from
Delhi NCR. With a diverse international audience, including hosted buyers from
over 100 countries, the event provides Indian food companies with an
unparalleled opportunity to reach native populations in these markets, moving
beyond just the Indian diaspora.
Indusfood 2025 will also host the prestigious Asia
President’s Forum for the very first time in India, in partnership with the
Indian Federation of Culinary Associations (IFCA). This landmark event will
bring together over 30 presidents of national chef associations from across
Asia. Two mega summits focusing on the food manufacturing and agritech sectors
are to be held on the sidelines of the show.

annual F&B trade exhibition organised by TPCI with the support of the

about bridging the gaps between farmers, technology providers, and global
markets, it not only enhances trade opportunities but also directly improves
farmer incomes by creating access to better markets and value-addition
opportunities."
