Annapoorna - ANUFOOD India, the largest F&B event in the Indian subcontinent
Koelnmesse, one of the international leaders in organiz- ing trade fairs in the food and beverage segment, and Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), have jointly decided to cancel the Annapoorna- AN- UFOOD India edition for 2021. The next edition is scheduled from 14th to 16th September 2022 at Bombay Exhibition Centre, Mumbai, India.
According to the Municipal Corporation of Mumbai, B2B events with large public gatherings are not allowed at this time. Although the situation regarding corona virus is im- proving in most parts of the country, the risk of a spike in infection cases persists in some places, including Mumbai city.
“We support the measures taken by the Government considering this situation and the past COVID-19 outbreak. In accordance with the directions from Government au- thorities and to ensure the safety of all participants, the An- napoorna – ANUFOOD India exhibition, which was sched- uled in September 2021, has been cancelled. The event will now take place from 14th to 16th September 2022 alongside ANUTEC - International FoodTec India, PackEx India, Food Logistics India and ANUTEC - Ingredients India at Bombay Exhibition Centre, making it the largest and most compre- hensive food exhibition in the Indian subcontinent.”, said Manab Majumdar, Deputy Secretary General, FICCI.
“Customers’ safety and convenience are our ultimate pri- ority; hence after receiving feedback from multiple stake- holders, we have decided to cancel the trade fair. This will allow our domestic and international exhibitors and visitors to plan well for Annapoorna- ANUFOOD India- India’s lead- ing international exhibition on food & beverage trade and retail market.”, he added.
