The Curated Expo to Source for Your Hotels and Restaurants

IHE 2022, the most well-curated expo for Hospitality and F&B sector to open for visitors from August 3-6 at India Expo Mart, Greater Noida in its 5th year

India International Hospitality Expo was set up in 2018 to address the much needed ‘quality gap’ in hospitality shows across the country. “There was a clear lack of platform that unified F&B, equipment and tech in hospitality to quality hotel and restaurant buyers. We aimed to address that with IHE”, says Rakesh Kumar, Chairman of India Expo Centre and Mart, Greater Noida, who happens to be the chief curator of the show and the vision behind this award-winning venue, 45 mins from the heart of Delhi.

In its fifth edition, IHE 2022 is targeting at hosting close to 800 exhibitors and over 20,000 B2B buyers from hotels, restaurants, cloud kitchens and BnBs. In addition to the exhibition that sees a curated footfall, the expo also hosts knowledge sessions at the IHE Conclave which has seen hospitality stalwarts like Priya Paul (Chairperson, Apeejay Surrendra Park Hotels), K.B Kachru (Chairman Emeritus & Principal Advisor, South Asia at Radisson Hotel Group), Rattan Keswani (MD, Lemon Tree Hotels), Chander Baljee (CMD, Royal Orchid), Zorawar Kalra (MD, Massive Restaurants) and Celebrity Chefs like Ranveer Brar, Vicky Ratnani, Vineet Bhatia and many others. The IHE Awards across various categories identify the stars in the hospitality sector and have emerged as the most awaited awards in the hospitality space.

The show, spread over 34,000 sq mt is planned to give the visitors a seamless experience where they’ll get to meet some of the top kitchen, laundry, tech and F&B equipment suppliers from across the world. Additionally, there’ll be scores of companies in the food ingredient space showcasing this year at IHE 2022.

With serious business generation at the core of its conception, IHE 2022, with the support of hotel purchasing bodies will host B2B sourcing sessions where purchasing professionals from the hospitality sector will educate the exhibitors about sourcing practices and what the industry really needs.

The expo has received raving reviews from hoteliers and restaurateurs since 2018 and is now looking to welcome hospitality entrepreneurs from across homestays, BnBs, and cloud kitchens in addition to star hotels and resorts which are regular buyers from here.
