With Southeast Asia’s strong demand and growing wines, spirits and alcohol markets, ProWine Singapore – the region’s leading sourcing platform for the wines and spirits sector – will be held annually from this year’s edition until 2024.
June 24th – Jointly organized by Messe Düsseldorf Asia and Informa Markets, ProWine will take place in 2022 (September 5 – 8) and then again from April 25 – 28, 2023 at the Singapore Expo – both years concurrently with FHA – Food & Beverage.
According to Gernot Ringling, Managing Director of Messe Düsseldorf Asia, ProWine Singapore’s change in cycle for the next few years is an important milestone for the growth and development of the trade fair in order to continue to meet growing customer demand and serve global markets: “The last edition was held in 2018, thus the new schedule will offer more business value and ensure that participants can maximize opportunities all year round. This move will also enable us to provide better portfolio strategies across the wines, spirits and alcohol market that will benefit our customers as they look to Asia to expand their investment presence.”
Asia Pacific’s alcohol sales volume is expected to return to pre-pandemic levels and reach US$420 billion by 2025. Fueling the growth of the market are innovations in flavor and increasing demand for new and exotic flavors, segment diversification, more advanced distribution networks globally, and the ongoing premiumization trend of wine and spirit products. The alcoholic beverage market is highly diversified in the region due to variation in taste and preferences, as well as social and cultural behaviors.[1] Due to the increased demand for premium alcohol, the Asia Pacific alcoholic beverage market is expected to continue growing at a strong rate.[2]
“In a business landscape that has changed with the recent global events, we understand the need to adapt and evolve. By pivoting our show to an annual platform, we provide the opportunity for a stronger presence to industry professionals to cater to their business growth. By annualizing ProWine Singapore and FHA, we are providing an annual platform to bring together Asia’s food and drink industry,” said Ian Roberts, Vice President of Informa Markets Asia.
With just three months until the start of ProWine Singapore 2022, plans are in full swing with a robust showing of international wine and spirit labels, wine driven technology solutions and masterclass series by renowned experts. Many wine growing regions of the world will be represented at ProWine Singapore, including country pavilions and groups from Australia, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal and Spain. Trade visitors will include distributors and importers, professionals from specialist and food retail, hospitality, food service and catering as well as decision makers from the airline and hotels sector.
Early exhibitor booking packages for ProWine Singapore 2023 will be available soon and space can be booked until the last day of the ProWine Singapore 2022 edition (September 8).
