Food Factory Technology Week Chiba

Food Factory Technology Week – formerly known as FOODtech Week – is Japan’s leading trade fair for food technology and food safety. It is specifically designed for professionals in the food industry who are seeking innovative, practical, and future-oriented solutions for the production, processing, and quality assurance of food products. The event takes place annually at Makuhari Messe in Chiba, a modern exhibition center located near Tokyo.

The exhibition is organized by RX Japan Ltd., one of Asia’s largest and most experienced trade show organizers, renowned for its industry-focused, highly specialized events. Food Factory Technology Week brings together two dedicated exhibitions under one roof: one focused on automation and digitalization of production processes, the other on hygiene and food safety. This combination makes the event unique in its format and positioning within the Asian market.

The event’s relevance stems from its clear focus on the pressing challenges currently facing the food industry. Topics such as the growing shortage of skilled labor, the need for increased efficiency, and compliance with international standards such as HACCP are at the core of the exhibition. It showcases highly specialized technologies and tailored solutions that address the specific needs of modern food production.

Exhibitors represent a wide range of sectors, including mechanical engineering, software development, hygiene and cleanroom technology, logistics, and consulting. The primary audience consists of key decision-makers in the food industry, such as production managers, quality assurance professionals, R&D teams, plant designers, and representatives from major retail chains and food brands who are looking to stay up to date with the latest technological advancements.

Food Factory Technology Week is part of a nationwide exhibition series held at various locations across Japan, each focusing on different aspects of manufacturing technology. As such, it not only contributes to the ongoing development of Japan’s food industry but also positions itself as a key innovation driver for the broader Asia-Pacific region.

Makuhari Messe provides the ideal setting for the event. As one of Japan’s most modern exhibition centers, it is easily accessible from both Tokyo and Narita International Airport by train, bus, or car. For companies seeking cutting-edge technologies, practical solutions, and new international business opportunities in the field of food technology, Food Factory Technology Week offers a valuable and future-ready platform.

This year the Food Factory Technology Week takes place on 3 days from Wed., 03.12.2025 to Fri., 05.12.2025 in Chiba already for the 6th time.
