in exhibiting, which shows that HOTELEX Shanghai's role as the
preferred platform for international hospitality and catering
suppliers is recognized by more countries," said Mark Lu, Deputy General Manager, Shanghai UBM
Sinoexpo Ltd, the organizers of the four-day event.
The Thai group is characterized by food companies, with many
introducing their products for the first time in China. T K K Chanthaburi Food will present
their "Goody" line of dried mango and dried durian. "We decided to
exhibit at HOTELEX Shanghai because we want to stage our high

For Taiwan, there will be more
than 10 exhibitors bringing a variety of new products. Some will
feature coffee products including coffee beans, coffee roasters,
coffee makers and other related equipment.
The National Federation of Fisheries Cooperatives is leading a
group of Korean companies to HOTELEX Shanghai as well. "Our
organization supports over 90 Korean seafood businesses in
promoting their fresh, frozen, processed and dried fishery
products. We have learned about the incredible opportunities
offered by HOTELEX Shanghai and are excited that we will finally be
exhibiting this year!" said Kim
Tae-hong, Chief Representative of the Federation.
