New to Fi India is a two-day workshop 'Basics of Bakery Modernisation', designed to impart basic knowledge on ingredients and packaging for bakery products.

Matthias Baur, Portfolio Director, Food ingredients Global, provides his viewpoint: "Our aim is to offer our customers as much value as possible, so when they leave the show, they not only possess powerful business leads, but also have a greater understanding of the entire food industry. Fi & Hi India not only provides this, but also provides high-level networking opportunities, the latest industry insights with the free on-site features, and is the largest meeting place for food ingredients in the entire region."
