Asia Fruit Logistica’s Bangkok Meet Up returns with ASEAN focus

Asia Fruit Logistica’s Meet Ups are back in 2025! The roadshow of content-backed networking events builds even more momentum for Asia Fruit Logistica’s return to Hong Kong on 3-5 September – and the series culminates with the Bangkok Meet Up on 25 June 2025.

Riding on its successful debut in 2024, Asia Fruit Logistica Bangkok Meet Up returns to offer fresh produce professionals a unique opportunity to connect, share knowledge and explore industry trends in the fast-growing ASEAN markets.

The Bangkok Meet Up serves as a central hub for networking and business development with a specific focus on the ASEAN region, including Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, the Philippines and Indonesia.

The one-day event on 25 June, hosted at the Carlton Hotel Sukhumvit, kicks off with a supplier showcase where leading companies present the latest products and solutions to local and key regional buyers.

This is followed by an engaging afternoon programme curated by Asia Fruit Logistica’s Knowledge Partner, Asiafruit Magazine. The agenda offers expert-led discussions on the most pressing issues shaping the ASEAN fresh produce business.

Dive deep into topics such as:

• The landscape for imported fruits across key ASEAN markets
• Important changes in the Thai market, from retail to food safety
• The evolving role of China as a supplier to South-East Asia
• The durian boom: challenges and road ahead
• Opportunities for controlled environment agriculture
• Untapped potential in intra-Asia trade

The event also features ample opportunities for networking and knowledge exchange, including an evening cocktail reception to foster business connections in a relaxed setting. International attendees can also join a study tour on 26 June, taking in Talaad Thai Wholesale Market, the largest agri wholesale market in South-East Asia, as well as a rare opportunity to visit the facilities of City Fresh Fruit, one of Thailand’s top fruit importers.

“Asia Fruit Logistica Bangkok Meet Up is an excellent forum for networking and information exchange and we had a great time last year”, said Bill Wongsakom Chatamomwong, deputy chief executive officer of City Fresh Fruit (Thailand).

“To reinforce our competitive edge and remain at the forefront, we are eager to meet new exporters and suppliers interested in the Thailand market. We’re excited to host the study tour to foster interaction and experience sharing. We’re really looking forward to many interesting connections and conversations ahead.”

Participants of the Asia Fruit Logistica China Study Tour will have the opportunity to meet key players in the Guangdong region over the weekend, while those participating in the AFL Fresh Produce Golf Cup can network and unwind in a more relaxed environment. Both activities will culminate in the China Meet Up, taking place in Guangzhou on 8-9 September.
