Asia’s largest food innovation exhibition postponed to September 28th – 30th, relocates to Shanghai National Exhibition and Convention Center (NECC).

Beijing, China – Organizers of SIAL China are postponing the three-day event, Asia’s largest food innovation exhibition to September 28th-30th, due to the evolving global COVID-19 situation.

The show, which was set to be held May 13th-15th, at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre, is now scheduled to take place in late September at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (NECC) in Shanghai, China. 

Before postponing the event, SIAL China held extensive discussions with exhibitors and partners to seek for the best approach in light of the global spread of COVID-19. Following this, the event is rescheduled to help protect the health and safety of the exhibitors, partners and visitors. 

Recent travel restrictions put in place around the world, including a mandatory 14-day quarantine for overseas arrivals from 24 countries in Shanghai, also made it more likely that international travel could be significantly limited in May. 

Based on initial inquiries from both international and domestic exhibitors and visitors, the organizer of SIAL China is encouraged by the high level of interest in attending the exhibition in late September. SIAL China 2020 will include many of the signature events include SIAL Innovation, La Cuisine, and Retail and Hospitality Forum, among others. Preparations are underway for these features. Exhibitors are encouraged to submit now for SIAL Innovation, where Top 10 finalists and Gold, Silver, Bronze winners will be awarded.
