In what will undoubtedly be one of the biggest tourist booms South Africa has ever seen, 2012 looks set to bring boundless opportunities to service providers throughout the hospitality industry. Timed specifically to help companies take advantage of these opportunities, Hostex Cape 2012 is set to take the Cape by storm. This is one exhibition you can’t afford to miss. HOSTEX is the largest and longest-running exhibition of its kind in Africa, and the only one endorsed by the South African Chefs Association. An integral part of the local food services and hospitality sector for 24 years in Gauteng, and returning to the Cape for the nineth time from 15-17 May 2012 at Cape Town International Convention Centre, HOSTEX promises to bring all the attractions which have become firm favourites, as well as some new and exciting additions. From non-stop action in the SA Chefs Pavilion, to speciality products in the Home Grown/SME Village, to the second annual Global Pizza Challenge, HOSTEX Cape will be hotter than ever before. New additions include a ‘Wine Circle’ showcasing the Cape’s finest, and the first-ever Greenstuff Village and Green Hotel.Venue: Cape Town International Convention Centre Contact: +27 (0) 11 835 1565
