Fi Asia-China Shanghai

Fi Asia-China is a leading international trade fair for food ingredients, held annually at the state-of-the-art National Exhibition and Convention Center (NECC) in Shanghai. As part of the global Hi & Fi event network, it brings together specialized exhibitors and professional visitors from the fields of food manufacturing, technology, processing, packaging, and distribution. The event serves as a central platform for showcasing and discovering innovative solutions across the entire value chain.

Organized by the experienced Informa Markets International Exhibition Co., Ltd., a global leader in trade show management, the event is exclusively tailored to a professional audience—particularly decision-makers, traders, and buyers in the food and beverage industry. As a key format in the Asian market, Fi Asia-China provides international companies with targeted access to China’s dynamic and rapidly growing food sector, while fostering professional exchange and the development of high-quality business relationships.

The event focuses on innovation, functionality, and sustainability. Highlights include probiotics featuring new strains and applications, forward-looking ingredients with market potential and high quality standards, functional components for modern product formulations, and alternative proteins with the potential to disrupt the industry. Socially relevant themes are also addressed, such as women's health and the Silver Economy, reflecting the fair's aim to connect technological advancement with evolving consumer needs.

The exhibition offers a broad yet highly specialized range of products and solutions. Alongside traditional food additives and ingredients, exhibitors present the latest technologies in processing and packaging, including solutions for clean labeling, sustainability, and sensory enhancement. Expert lectures, panel discussions, and competitions complement the trade fair, creating a space for exchange, inspiration, and recognition of outstanding achievements.

A distinctive feature of Fi Asia-China is its close integration with concurrently held trade shows such as HNC (Healthplex Expo, Natural & Nutraceutical Products China), ProPak China & FoodPack, and the Starch Expo. This combination forms a comprehensive event that covers all stages—from product development to processing, packaging, and distribution.

The choice of venue reflects the event’s high standards. The NECC in Shanghai is one of the most advanced exhibition centers in Asia, offering excellent infrastructure and optimal transport connectivity. As China’s economic hub with international reach, cultural diversity, and culinary richness, Shanghai provides an inspiring setting for an event that actively shapes the future of the food industry.
