SINGAPORE, Apr 12, 2013 - (ACN Newswire) - Some of the world's largest hotel chains are looking to Asia as their main focus for expansion in the coming years. Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide has 153 pipeline projects in Asia, while InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) plans to double its Southeast Asian presence, and Accor has planned for 45 per cent of its 104,000 new rooms to be located in the Asia Pacific.
This growth coupled with more tourist arrivals, an increasing number of airlines and a vibrant F&B scene, is testament to the region's ever expanding hospitality industry. The upcoming 19th edition of HotelAsia is well poised to serve this growing demand. The event is one of the region's most anticipated international trade exhibition of hotel, restaurant and foodservice equipment, supplies and services. From food processing to cooking equipment, HotelAsia is the main event where buyers from all across Asia will gather to source for the latest food service products.
To be held from 8 - 11 April 2014 at the Singapore Expo, with about a year to go, HotelAsia2014 has already attracted interest from major local and international industry players.
