All Food-related Technologies, from Japan to the World
FOOMA JAPAN provides one-stop access to cutting-edge products, technologies, services and information related to food. It covers all food-related technologies, including food-processing technology, technology related to safety and hygiene, and technology related to energy-saving and the environment, necessary to improve production, efficiency and quality.

This year, FOOMA JAPAN has added a new field for "engineering, robotics and IoT." Through it, FOOMA JAPAN will seek to propose advanced solutions to a wide range of issues, such as automation of the production process using robot systems for food manufacturing or IoT technology to share and leverage information by connecting various products to the network.

Visitors can watch, touch and taste products during the various demonstrations as if they are visiting food-manufacturing factories or watching machinery that manufactures Japanese food such as sushi or noodles, which are popular in other countries across the world. This can be expected to help in providing better solutions to issues related to food manufacturing and processing.

Warm support for international visitors at the venue
FOOMA JAPAN will also provide various services for international visitors. At the venue, exhibiting company members who speak English, Chinese, Korean and other foreign languages will be wearing a "bilingual badge" on their chest. English, Chinese and Korean language staff present at the "Information" counter will answer visitors' queries.

In addition, the names of exhibitors and products from FOOMA JAPAN 2018, the previous exhibition, are available on the official website to help visitors understand the overwhelming scale of Asia's largest exhibition.

Prior registration for visiting FOOMA JAPAN 2019 began through the official website from April 1, 2019. Visitors can also make hotel reservations from the official website.
