What Is India Food Forum?

India Food Forum was formed in 2008 with support from the MoFPI (Ministry of Food Processing Industries) and with a clear goal to create a platform that gets all the stakeholders of the Food Retail & Food Service ecosystem under one roof to learn from each other and grow together. India Food Forum aimed to be the most powerful food B2B intelligence event where the attendees find knowledge, connections, ideas, inspiration, and new products.

In its 18th edition now, India Food Forum has become the largest B2B event hosting the end-to-end of food business enablement – from product sourcing, and retail tech innovation trends to grocery retailing & food service best practices – through a mega 2-day conference, zoned exhibitions, partner networking and industry awards.

INDIA’S RETAIL ICON &
OUR CHAIRMAN

“If there is a celebration of partnerships between modern consumer brands and contemporary retail platforms, it is undoubtedly India Food Forum.

Whether you are a large corporation or a small business, regional or national, local or global, if you are a consumer brand or retailer, India Food Forum is your gateway to meaningful collaborations and business opportunities.

In my calendar, India Food Forum days are synonymous with new possibilities and transformative partnerships.

I look forward to reconnecting with many friends and partners at India Food Forum 2024,”

WHAT AWAITS YOU AT INDIA FOOD FORUM 2024

Given India's food ingredients and cuisine diversity, it is little wonder that this vast market is home to numerous success stories when it comes to both brand creation and retail case studies. At India Food Forum, we bring together some of the extraordinary brands whose growth stories can serve as powerful masterclasses for both emerging and established enterprises.
Prepare to unveil 2024's most exciting food & beverage innovations on a specially designed platform for retail and HoReCa. With a proven track record of spotlighting groundbreaking F&B launches, India Food Forum is the ultimate stage for your brand's big moment.
India is a nation of shopkeepers. Modern supermarket chains only contribute to less than 10% of the grocery retail market. The rest is served by the local supermarkets or grocers who are closest to the customers in the hinterlands of India. India Food Forum has taken the initiative to felicitate some of the supermarkets of Bharat that have modernized with changing times and made grocery shopping an enjoyable experience for their valued customers.
An evening of short-form talks that promise to enlighten and inspire. Delve into the world of retail with insights from industry leaders, change-makers, and pioneers.
India’s most authoritative recognition for food service brands and companies to acknowledge excellence in format innovation, marketing, business expansion, and customer experience.
India’s most prestigious accolades for food and food service retailers, the Coca-Cola Golden Spoon Awards, were launched in 2008 to acknowledge the growing successes of progressive food and grocery retailers and their crucial role in boosting consumption and the evolution of effective marketing and distribution strategies in this sector.
