Free activation zone · Food & Beverage
Your ingredients. On the show floor. In front of GCC buyers.
The Super Kitchen is a live demonstration kitchen where professional chefs cook with organic and natural ingredients sourced directly from exhibitors on the floor. For F&B exhibitors, it's an opportunity to put your product in an active culinary context — not just on a shelf. Buyers who watch a chef build a dish around your ingredient leave with a use-case, not just a brochure.
Open to all trade visitors · Activation slots available — enquire when you book your stand.
