FHA-HoReCa postpones July event

SINGAPORE,March 26,2020 --Informa Markets has announced today that FHA-HoReCa,one of the world's leading industry events serving the hotel,restaurant and café sectors,will be postponed to a later date,given the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic being felt throughout the global hospitality and tourism industries. The event was due to take place from 13- 16 July 2020 at the Singapore EXPO & MAX Atria.

ProWine Asia (Singapore) 2020,co-organised by Messe Düsseldorf Asia and Informa Markets,and due to be co-located with FHA-HoReCa in July,is similarly postponed.

"Finally,I want to thank all FHA-HoReCa participants for trusting us to take the right decisions for this hugely important event and we do so with your very best interests in mind.
