FOODtech JAPAN Osaka

FOODtech JAPAN is a leading trade fair for innovative technologies in food production and a key part of the renowned FOODtech Week. The name stands for "Food Technology Japan" and highlights the event’s focus on automation, digital transformation, and sustainability in the food industry. The fair takes place annually at the INTEX Osaka International Exhibition Center, one of Japan’s most important economic and innovation hubs in food technology.

Organized by RX Japan Ltd., FOODtech JAPAN brings together professionals from across the entire food production value chain—ranging from manufacturers and restaurant chains to retailers. The event serves as a central platform for companies looking to optimize production processes, reduce food waste, and implement cutting-edge technologies for quality control and packaging.

At the heart of the exhibition are state-of-the-art machines and technologies, including intelligent food processing systems, robotics, IoT- and AI-powered automation solutions, inspection systems, autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs), and sustainable packaging solutions. A key highlight is the Food Loss & Waste Recycling Fair, Japan’s only specialized trade fair for recycling solutions and strategies to reduce food waste. This initiative helps companies achieve their sustainability goals and comply with international environmental standards.

The fair attracts exhibitors and visitors from a wide range of industries, including food producers, machinery manufacturers, wholesalers, logistics providers, and factory automation experts. For decision-makers in the food industry, FOODtech JAPAN offers a unique opportunity to explore the latest trends, expand professional networks, and establish business relationships with international partners.

As part of FOODtech Week, the fair extends beyond Osaka—it is part of a series of events held in multiple cities across Japan, shaping the industry on a national scale.

The venue, INTEX Osaka, is easily accessible by public transportation and car. As Japan’s culinary capital, Osaka provides visitors with the perfect opportunity to experience the latest technological innovations alongside the city’s rich food culture.
