Focus on local and international innovation in Thailand

TRAFS 2025 has set up a special "Thailand Special Zone" to focus on promoting geographical indication (GI) products, local spices and sustainable packaging technologies, helping Thai SMEs to connect with the global market. At the same time, international brands from Germany, Italy, Japan and China will launch smart kitchen robots, energy-saving combined refrigeration systems, plant-based ice cream ingredients and zero-plastic disposable products for the first time, providing green upgrade solutions for hotels and catering companies.

Four major themed concurrent events

1. Trend Forum: Invite Michelin chefs, chain restaurant groups and food technology start-ups to interpret "Asian Flavor Trends in 2025" and "Application of AI in Kitchen Management".

2. Master Class: Live demonstration of boutique coffee latte art, handmade chocolate tempering and molecular cooking techniques.

3. Business Matching: Arrange one-on-one negotiations between suppliers and hotel groups, supermarkets and e-commerce platforms through the online reservation system.

BITEC is located next to the Bangkok Metro BTS Bang Na Station. It only takes 30 minutes to take the Airport Express to the exhibition hall. It is equipped with 2,000 parking spaces to facilitate local and overseas buyers to visit the exhibition efficiently.
