longer shelf life. With more women in the workforce, convenience
foods are booming. Healthier food choices are also of great interest
in order to combat lifestyle-influenced conditions such as
cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Well educated, informed and
articulate, the Indian consumers have changing tastes - including
their food consumption.
An event like Fi India provides a platform for ingredients
specialists to showcase their food ingredients to this growing
Indian market. And, at the same time, Food industry professionals
from India and the rest of the world will get an opportunity to see
the latest innovations in the industry, establish important business
contacts and discuss trends with their peers.
Fi India will Introduce Two New Pavilions along side Food
Ingredients Natural Ingredients Pavilion (Ni), Food ingredient
Processing Safety and Services Pavilion (FiPSS). Perfect platform
for food ingredients suppliers to meet companies that offer
solutions or services to the companies for latest safety
requirements and regulations.
