Anna Mikołajczyk, WPPH Elena Import-Export
We’ve been participating in HORECA® Trade Fair for the ninth time. This year was positively surprising – Visitors are even more interested and, what should be stressed, that isn’t only curtesy on their side. We can keep business talks here on the specific topics and this is what we care for the most. At the moment nothing indicates that we will resign from participation in this event. The trade fairs are the best way to present new products introduced to the market – the effect like this can’t be achieved by on-line advertisement or 3D visualisation. Here it is possible to touch and test products.
Kamil Kartanowicz, Komat
The HORECA Academy During 3 days of the HORECA Academy and the Masters Kitchen the novelties of HoReCa industry were presented. Visitors of the Trade Fair were able to join the interactive show stimulating all the senses. It was possible to see trends in gastronomy, listen to the experts, taste new dishes and understand the technology of the future. „I work in catering and I received the invitation for HORECA® Trade Fair from my restaurant. I find the trade fair very good – we found here many awesome Chefs, there are exhibitors with equipment for catering and very interesting presentations of cooking art. Anyone will find here something worth attention and if someone works in this industry and want to be up to date, they should be here at the Trade Fair.”

The 7th Waiters Race in Krakow
Once again waiters took part in the competition. The skill, agility, wit and knowledge were what mattered. The Jury judged carefully the participants. The 7th Waiters Race was won by Maciej Łusiński, representing Wedding House Bartek in Bielsko-Biała
„A year ago I took second place. This time I see the progress – I reached highest place on the podium! I am very proud about winning. I had to prepare a little bit to the competition - more mentally than physically because the stress level is incredible. It makes me even more proud that diploma for the best waiter will hang on the wall in place where I work. It is distinction for me and also for the restaurant – prestige and additional advertisement”
