IIGS 2008

While traditional Indian cuisine has always enjoyed an excellent and exotic global reputation, the gourmet market has historically catered to an elitist minority. But as the sub-continent experiences phenomenal growth, the tastes of the new burgeoning middle class are becoming more sophisticated and the demand for fine foods and wines has reached epic proportions. The aloo gobi of yesterday is fast becoming the foie gras of today.

The 2008 India International Gourmet Show (IIGS) is a highly focused, compact B2B exhibition for international gourmet producers, importers, exporters, distributors, wholesalers and retailers to profile themselves to the cream (pun intended) of Indian’s commercial F&B buyers and consumers. The three day
exhibition runs alongside the India International Wine Fair and is an ideal new opportunity for international exhibitors and providers to break into one of the world’s most lucrative emerging fine food and wine markets.

The event also features the India International Gourmet Summit, the Informa Good Food Awards and a host of further intensive networking sessions to ensure that you have maximum opportunities to build new business relationships and cement existing ones.

IIGS 2008 will take place at The Grand Hyatt, Mumbai, between 11^th -13^th December, 2008.
