Health Food Ingredients & OEM Exhibition Tokyo

Held annually, the Health Food Ingredients & OEM Exhibition is the premier industry event for professionals who are not only observing the transformation of the nutrition landscape but actively shaping it. Located in the heart of Tokyo at the prestigious Tokyo International Forum, the exhibition brings together innovation, science, and business under one roof.

Organized by Health Business Media Co., Ltd., the exhibition targets a highly specialized audience from sectors such as food technology, product development, OEM manufacturing, packaging solutions, and quality management.

At its core, the event focuses on health-promoting food ingredients that offer added value to consumers through targeted functionality – including vitamins, probiotic cultures, and plant extracts. OEM and contract manufacturing also play a central role: from raw materials to production, packaging, and analytics, visitors can explore the entire value chain.

A particularly dynamic theme is the megatrend of plant-based nutrition – featuring innovative protein sources such as legumes, plant-based milk alternatives, and meat substitutes. This is complemented by emerging food resources like microorganisms, insects, algae, and cultured meat – all of which represent innovations with significant global sustainability potential.

Modern fermentation technologies are another focal point, especially in connection with functional ingredients for healthy diets. Additional key areas include food safety, quality assurance, and smart processing and packaging technologies – from AI-powered foreign object detection to intelligent packaging solutions that extend shelf life.

Moreover, the exhibition positions itself as a platform for solutions to reduce food waste – whether through upcycling, sustainable packaging, or innovative preservation techniques. In doing so, it makes a meaningful contribution to the sustainable transformation of the food industry and highlights Japan’s role as a pioneer in technological innovation.

Exhibitors represent a broad spectrum of industries, including food production, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, analytics, packaging, mechanical engineering, and trade. The main target groups are product developers, R&D managers, buyers, brand owners, start-ups, and OEM service providers seeking new ingredients, technologies, or production partners.

The Tokyo International Forum, with its central location, state-of-the-art infrastructure, proximity to international hotels, and excellent access to public and long-distance transportation, offers ideal conditions for visitors and exhibitors from around the globe. Whether arriving by Shinkansen, plane, or subway, the Health Food Ingredients & OEM Exhibition is easy to reach – making a visit to the Tokyo trade fair an efficient and inspiring experience.
