The 3-day event attracted a massive turn up of Chefs, Culinary Artists, Food & Safety Expert, Hospitality Suppliers and the HORECA Industry from all over the East African region.

This year’s theme was “Embracing the changing landscape of cuisine”. The stakeholders discussed more on the current hospitality scene and the way forward as the industry is recuperating from a recent pandemic that hit the entire hospitality & tourism industry.

In the next five years, the hospitality industry in East Africa is expected to attain an upward trajectory thanks to the Hospitality Audit firm reports, which show that growth in tourism numbers coupled with governments’ efforts to promote MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions) infrastructure to attract more business tourists is driving the upward growth of the industry.

The latest products, services, and technologies for the industry were showcased by over 40 companies that exhibited at the event. Comprehensive and leading-edge networking opportunities also provided the stakeholders with the best tools to grow and improve their business.

Leading international and local Hotel brands like Radisson, The Accor, Marriotts, Hilton, Radisson, Golden Tulip, Sankara, Serena, Sarova, Sentrim, Jacaranda just to mention a few were among the international brands that thronged the event.
