Food & Beverage manufacturing remains a leading growth driver in Southeast Asia with an estimated 4 million people working in 300,000 companies. The ASEAN food and beverage market is poised for further growth, as rapid urbanization and an expanding middle-class boost spending on processed foods.
This necessitates capital investments to increase capacity and improve efficiency, creative yet cost-effective solutions to boost new product development, and upgraded quality control systems to assure greater food safety. Moreover, as the 2015 deadline for the ASEAN Economic Community approaches, Food & Beverage processors need to understand the effects that economic integration will have on the regional industry. The implications area wider, tariff-free market, and more challenging product registration standards.

This regional event will feature a broad spectrum of high-profile global and local corporations as well as food industry thought leaders, marketing and consumer specialists and regional food trade authorities.
