After the split, HOTELEX Shanghai will continue to focus on hotel equipment and supplies as well as fine food and ingredients. The building design, decoration, furnishing, lighting, cleaning and facilities segments will be moved under the HOTEL PLUS brand.

Targeting hotels, shopping malls, restaurants, office buildings, hospitals and other public commercial properties, HOTEL PLUS consists of 17 thematic pavilions across different sectors, many of which are well-established events within their own industries. The new mega event helps architects, interior designers, building engineers and contractors, facilities managers, business owners, franchisors and franchisees and retailers to find new products, technologies, services and solutions that are related to the commercial built environment.

"HOTELEX Shanghai has grown significantly and further expansion is limited by the venue," said Mark Lu , Deputy General Manager, Shanghai UBM Sinoexpo Ltd. "Launching HOTEL PLUS is a strategic move which not only releases more exhibition space for HOTELEX Shanghai, but also helps to achieve a better sourcing experience for buyers coming from the relevant sectors."

"Although several core thematic segments are relocated to HOTEL PLUS, the sales for the remaining segments at HOTELEX Shanghai, including hospitality supplies, catering equipment and food & beverage, continue to thrive. We are very pleased that some 90% of exhibiting space has been sold although there are well more than three months to the event," said Mr. Lu.

Apart from being one of the world's largest hospitality and fine food exhibitions, HOTELEX Shanghai also hosts more than 30 industry events and seminars. The China Barista Championship, for instance, is known as the Olympic Games in the barista world. The China Gelato Championship, the World of Bread Contest - China Selection, the China Master Bartender Competition and the Shanghai Pizza Master Competition are just a handful of examples of world-class contests taking place during the four-day event.
