Why Exhibit?

Together with Health ingredients Japan (focusing on health and functional ingredients), Food ingredients for Taste Japan (featuring food ingredients for better taste), Safety and Technology Japan (on safety and quality) and Food Long Life Japan (gathering a variety of long-shelf-life technologies for food loss reduction), the four important themes in the food industry, “health”, “taste”, “safety and quality” and "long shelf life", will come together during Asia’s biggest food development show.

Japan is the birthplace of the functional ingredients industry, with a long tradition of selecting and enhancing the health benefits of food products. This pioneering market continues to grow rapidly and key players from around the world are coming to Hi / FiT / S-tec / LL Japan to witness the ongoing evolution of the functional ingredients industry.
