The event program of Asiafruit Congress and the Asiafruit Business Forum has been released.
Asiafruit Congress and the Asiafruit Business Forum take place during Asia Fruit Logistica, in Hong Kong, from September 6 to 8. Both take place on the show floor across two stages, with both events free to attend for all Asia Fruit Logistica ticketholders.
Asiafruit Congress has a top-quality program covering the latest market trends and opportunities in Asia. Asia’s premier fresh produce conference takes place on the main stage across all three days of Asia Fruit Logistica on 6-8 September 2023.
Asiafruit Congress
Day One focuses on Marketing & Consumers. High-level speakers analyse Asia’s new market demographics and look at what’s next for food retail across the region. Plus, a masterclass in fresh produce marketing brings together leading brand marketers to discuss the keys to a successful campaign.
Tech & Innovation is the theme for Day Two at Asiafruit Congress. AI is powering new solutions for the fresh produce trade. Case studies demonstrate how AI is improving processes and look at how it might shape the future of the business. In a session on varietal innovation, global fruit breeders and marketers also explain how new cultivars are driving growth in Asia across several categories.
Day Three homes in on Markets & Trade. Thought leaders look at the way the global fresh produce business does its trade, and they explain how technology and sustainability are giving rise to new models of working. An expert panel discusses China’s changing distribution landscape, plus a spotlight on North Asia looks at market opportunities in Japan and Korea.

In addition to gaining strategic insights at Asiafruit Congress, visitors can join a wide-ranging program of informal workshops at Asiafruit Business Forum.
Asiafruit Business Forum presents three days of workshops under different tracks.
New for 2023, the Launchpad on Day One provides a platform for exhibitors to showcase a range of exciting products, technologies, and solutions. It’s a ready-to-speak forum where confirmed exhibitors and co-exhibitors can book a presentation slot.
Day Two at Asiafruit Business Forum features Partner Content. The International Fresh Produce Association (IFPA) delivers an education program focused on food safety and retail merchandising. Asiafruit China also hosts a series of Chinese-language workshops with practical advice on developing a premium domestic fruit brand in China, from production through post-harvest to marketing.
Asiafruit Business Forum concludes on Day Three with the Logistics Hub, a series of workshops on cold chain logistics. A panel of industry leaders discusses the current situation and future outlook for global reefer shipping. Expert talks also look at new solutions for fresh produce shippers, with workshops on shelf-life extension technologies, cold chain distribution, and traceability.
