PHUKET will host a bright new hospitality expo in September, aimed at shaking off the shackles and restoring momentum to the tourism industry.
The Phuket International Hospitality Show will centre on the island's Royal Phuket Marina and be aimed at general managers and executives from resorts, restaurants and spas especially.
Industry suppliers and customers from Phuket, Krabi, Phang Nga and Surat Thani are expected to find the gathering, from September 24-26, especially useful.
Among the events already being planned are wine gatherings for sommeliers, suppliers and winemakers, a three-day series of hospitality seminars, and a culinary fare forum designed to offer new ideas and products.
Customer service, environmental responsibility, finance and technology, organics, sales and marketing and spas and wellness are listed for special treatment.
The inaugural dinner is expected to be a social highlight.
Exhibitors are now being invited to express interest. The expo will be staged by Informa, which now also runs the Boat Show, which this year will be separated for the first time from the King's Cup regatta.
Expo inquiries should be made to project manager Jennifer Drew 080 146 2673 or jennifer.drew@informayachtgroup.com
