The 20th Malaysian International Food & Beverage (MIFB 2019) trade fair will provide a platform to taste the future, from new processes and technologies to industry trends, consumer needs, food safety, traceability, and sustainability.
Themed Future of Food Business, the event offers showcases under four categories:
- Food technology
- Food & Beverage (healthy and natural produce),
- Halal food, and
- Seafood and Fishery.
The halal food segment was only introduced in 2018. The time was right to do so as Malaysia is perceived as a leader in the global halal industry, with a halal ecosystem that is equipped with comprehensive and proactive policies as well as the frameworks to develop the halal industry.
The organisers also noted that halal certification from the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM)
is stringent and highly sought-after under a bilateral halal system recognition programme. Additionally, the Halal Industry Development Master Plan (HIDM) 2008 – 2020
identifies the halal industry as a new source of economic growth.
Over 600 participating companies from 50 countries will be hosted and
more than 20,000 trade visitors from around the world are expected to
visit the show.
Preregister before 25 June 2019 to collect an express trade visitor pass and a free show directory.
