If you are involved in the food service or hotel industry, you may be interested in attending a major event such as Hotelympia.

This year's Hotelympia event was held last February at the Excel Conference and Exhibit Center in London. It had about a thousand exhibitors and close to fifty thousand attendees.

The event, which is held every two years, enables suppliers to exhibit their goods and gives them the opportunity to be exposed to the market. On the user side, the event provides excellent ideas and opportunities to purchase products such as utensils, equipment, interior decor and ingredients.

There are booths which display and demonstrate the use of new icemakers, espresso brewers, microwave ovens, and kitchen ranges. The latest technologies in kitchen equipment will enable you to cut power costs, triple your production capacity, and improve your restaurant's food and service quality. The best part about the exhibition is that you can meet these exhibitors in person and create new business relationships with them as new suppliers or customers. If you are the exhibitor, exposure of your products will translate into more sales and profits for your products.

Hotelympia is not just about buying and selling opportunities for restaurateurs and hoteliers. The event also educates its participants through various seminars, demonstrations, and activities scheduled each day. There are specific business groups and sponsors who present seminars on special topics such as cost accounting for hotels and restaurants, feasibility studies, safety in food handling, public relations, sourcing of equipment and supplies, energy efficiency, proper recruitment of employees, innovative cooking techniques, and countless other tips and strategies that will improve your business performance.

About the only setback is that you do have to spend money for transportation of your staff and your products to the event, especially if you are based in another country. You do have to pay a fee to be an exhibitor or to enter as a participant. Considering the rewards of learning new things and establishing new business relations, it could be worth your while to be either an exhibitor or attendee.

The next Hotelympia will be held in two years at the same location. If you are interested, book early.

Hotelympia is not connected to Olympia Hotels or their affiliates, subsidiaries and branches.
