After
the successful launch of World of Food India 2004 in Hyderabad,
Koelnmesse joint hands with FICCI to organize the next
edition as partner. As a result of this joint venture
World of Food India was re-named to “Annapoorna –
World of Food India”. The trade fair duo will occupy
8,000 m2 of exhibition space in Hall 1 of the Bombay Exhibition
grounds NSE in Mumbai. |

Since the Indian
market was opened up, the country has become one of the
world’s fastest-growing economies. Imports of food
and drinks, for example, more than doubled between 1999
and 2005, and further increases are predicted in the coming
years. The Indian food industry is also posting growth
in terms of production volume and exports.
Conditions are therefore ideal for a duo of food fairs
which will be supplemented by a sophisticated conference
and seminar program. As a spinoff of Anuga, Annapoorna
- World of Food India will also benefit from the international
network of the world’s largest food and drink fair.
“That’s an advantage that we intend to exploit
to the full,” states Wolfgang Kranz, Executive Vice
President of Koelnmesse.
Together with local partners, Koelnmesse has been successfully
staging Thaifex - World of Food Asia in Bangkok since
2004. The company also organizes food fairs for the Chinese
market.
Producers and importers will exhibit the entire spectrum
of food, drinks and raw materials at Annapoorna - World
of Food India. The organisers expect to attract a large
number of international exhibitors in addition to Indian
suppliers. Currently 9 countries have announced group
participations, among them are Australia, China, Germany,
Indonesia, Malaysia, Netherlands, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand
and some more. The fair will address trade visitors from
the specialist trade and import, the hotel and catering
sector, the travel and tourism sector, and the food and
packaging industry.
