With its Dining area, Ambiente is the global leader in table, kitchen and household products as well as an important marketplace for HoReCa. This competence will be further expanded in 2020 due to the growing number of international trade visitors from this segment. Hall 6.0 offers more space for knowledge exchange with fellow professionals, product presentations by other top exhibitors, as well as a venue for the premiere of the HoReCa Academy.

Lifestyle is shaping the industry
Thomas Kastl – otherwise known as “Mister Dining” – has been the director of this area at the fair for over 25 years. He talks about the changes in the HoReCa sector and the outstanding role of Ambiente.
‘For us as a 100 % HoReCa supplier, Ambiente is an essential platform for presenting the latest products to our customers, meeting potential business partners and initiating future projects.’
‘The HoReCa market is on the up. The guests are different, they want to feel more emotionally involved and this is reflected in the restaurants and hotels as well as in the food. This can be seen at Ambiente. The demand is there.’
‘We present our brand worldwide at trade fairs – and Ambiente is our No. 1. We meet retailers from over sixty countries at Frankfurt. At the last event we were able to make new contacts from Central America and the Caribbean.’
