When you need new technology or equipment and are looking at ways to make your processes more productive, it pays to compare brands. With one visit to this show you can see all the big names and can really weigh up the benefits of each before you make the big decision. “There is very strong industry support for Foodtech Packtech 2016,” said Deb, “which, I believe, reflects the current industry and economic sentiment. FTPT 2016 is set to showcase many amazing examples of successful high-tech Kiwi food and beverage manufacturing capability. “It’s a great chance to see existing suppliers again and also brings the opportunity of meeting new purveyors and seeing their exciting innovations and cutting-edge new products and technology.”
Seminar program The overall event seminars, organised in partnership with NZIFST, will bring together leading experts and professionals to share their knowledge, skills and ideas that are critical to the sustainability and growth of the vibrant F&B industry.
