Jakarta, July 24, 2025 - Indonesia’s food and beverage industry is entering a phase of rapid growth. The country’s foodservice market is projected to reach USD 62.4 billion by 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13% through 2030. Alongside this, the demand for high-quality food products, modern food processing technologies, and halal-certified goods continue to rise across retail, HoReCa, and digital platforms.
With over 230 million Muslim residents, Indonesia is the largest halal consumer market in the world and a growing hub for halal consumption in Southeast Asia. The demand for halal products is no longer a temporary trend, but a long-term necessity. However, this opportunity remains underutilized by many businesses. Key challenges—such as limited access to qualified buyers, lack of regulatory understanding, and fragmented distribution channels—continue to hinder both local and international players.
In response to these needs, MoreFood Expo 2026 was officially launched during a press event held at Grand Orchardz Hotel Kemayoran, Jakarta. The international B2B trade exhibition will take place from May 7–10, 2026 at JIEXPO Kemayoran, providing a strategic platform that connects food, packaging, and processing industry players with verified buyers from both domestic and international markets.
Organized by Huamo Expo, in partnership with Panorama Media, and supported by IPBBI. MoreFood Expo will feature a wide range of sectors, including plant-based food ingredients, packaged and canned food, processing and packaging machinery, catering equipment, and horeca supply chains.
Carrie Wang, General Manager of Indonesia BD at Huamo Expo, stated that the event is designed to offer impactful solutions for the Indonesian market. “MoreFood Expo 2026 is not just an exhibition—it’s a business platform built to bridge global and local industry players with real market needs in one of the fastest-growing food sectors, particularly in halal,” she said.
In addition to the exhibition floor, MoreFood Expo 2026 will also present a business matching program to connect exhibitors with carefully selected buyers, offering real opportunities for strategic partnerships and transactions. The event will be held alongside two major exhibitions—Café Brasserie Expo and Franchise & License Expo Indonesia—to create synergy and expand audience reach.
Royanto Handaya, President Director of Panorama Media, expressed his appreciation for the partnership with Huamo Expo. “It is an honor for Panorama Media to collaborate with Huamo Expo in presenting MoreFood Expo 2026. We believe this event will become a key connector between industry innovation and an expanding market. Not only for global players but also as a strategic opportunity for local producers to scale up, expand their distribution, and access export markets,” he said.
Gomas Harun, President of IPBBI, stated, “We believe that MoreFood Expo will elevate the creativity of Indonesia's food industry to a whole new level, contributing significantly to the country's economic growth. With our rich cultural heritage, culinary diversity, and growing interest in food, it's no surprise that the industry plays a vital role in our economy. Let's celebrate the resilience of Indonesia's food industry with positive initiatives like More Food Expo.”
Support for the halal sector also comes from Prof. Dr. Siti Nur Azizah Ma’ruf Amin, SH, M. Hum, Chairperson of the Nusantara Spice Enthusiasts Association and the Indonesian Muslim Women Entrepreneurs Association. “We are ready to assist both local and international businesses in navigating the halal certification process in Indonesia. MoreFood Expo will be a strategic space to build consumer trust and strengthen the national halal ecosystem,” the she said.
With a strong position, cross-industry support, and positive market momentum, MoreFood Expo 2026 is set to become an essential stage for food and halal industry stakeholders—both local and global—to connect, innovate, and grow together.
