FLOOR PLAN

GEN‑Z IS LEADING THE CHARGE

83% of street food demand comes from under-40s, with 32% of Gen-Z actively seeking bold new flavours. At the Street Food Business Expo, we host seminars highlighting the expertise of marketing strategists and put a spotlight on research and development. Get ready to reach your new, younger audience and encourage them to enjoy more of what street food has to offer.

EXPERIENCE OVER EVERYTHING

Today’s customers want more than just food - they crave experiences! 70% of diners say the vibe of a street food venue influences their decision to visit. The Street Food Business Expo can show you the type of immersive pop-ups, live cooking stations, and themed environments that hold the key to standing out and building brand loyalty.

HEALTHY INNOVATIONS

Health-focused street food is no longer niche - it’s a driving force behind purchasing decisions. With 67% of UK consumers actively seeking nutritious options when eating out, vendors are embracing plant-based ingredients, gluten-free alternatives, and low-oil cooking methods.
