Sirha Budapest 2020

Our magazine asked Klára Tihanyi, exhibition director of Sirha Budapest 2020 about the food, baking and confectionery, HoReCa, packaging and gastronomy trade fair. ‘In 2018 about 300 exhibitors from 17 countries showcased their products and services to 21,500 trade visitors from 35 countries at Sirha Budapest. Sirha Budapest is now the second biggest event in the Sirha network behind the original trade show held in Lyon. In 2018 the Sirha Budapest trade show expanded to two pavilions, so that it could host the many trade competitions, conferences and business matchmaking events that took place there.’

‘The 2020 Hungarian selection of the Bocuse d’Or chef competition will be in the programme of Sirha Budapest, together with young chef (cooks younger than 27 years) contest Jeunes Chefs Rôtisseurs that will make its debut here next year. New programmes keep turning up on the agenda, so it is worth visiting the website www.sirha-budapest.com regularly, where you can also find the list of exhibitors and register for participation free of charge. Let me thank the help and hard work of our partners and sponsors, first and foremost Metro, Trade magazin, the Guild of Hungarian Confectioners and the Hungarian Baker Association.’
