SIGEP Asia & Restaurant Asia exhibition has announced an exclusive three-year partnership with the Airline Catering Association (ACA), an organisation representing 64% of the world’s airline catering market and responsible for serving 4.7 million meals daily.
This strategic collaboration aims to strengthen both organisations while fostering innovation and growth within the high-volume airline catering industry. The partnership will provide ACA members with opportunities to explore and broaden menu variety, introducing new flavours, ingredients, and catering solutions that meet the ever-evolving demands of global air travel. At the same time, SIGEP Asia & Restaurant Asia exhibitors will benefit from unparalleled access to a sector that thrives on efficiency, scalability, and quality.
Ilaria Cicero, CEO of IEG Asia, said, “This partnership represents a significant step forward for SIGEP Asia & Restaurant Asia. By aligning with ACA, we’re not only opening doors for our exhibitors to showcase ingredients, products, and equipment tailored for this high-turnover industry, but also helping ACA members discover innovative solutions to enhance their operations and menus.”
Key benefits of the partnership include:
- Business Opportunities for Exhibitors: Exhibitors at SIGEP Asia & Restaurant Asia will gain direct access to ACA members, to highlight products and solutions designed for large-scale catering operations.
- Innovations in Airline Catering: ACA members will have the chance to explore new ingredients and equipment to diversify and elevate their offerings.
- Industry Insights and Collaboration: The partnership will facilitate meaningful connections between industry professionals, fostering innovation and driving growth in the airline catering sector.
Benjamin Boh, president, Restaurant Association of Singapore, said, “Restaurant Association of Singapore (RAS) is happy to welcome the Airline Catering Association (ACA) to Restaurant Asia and SIGEP Asia 2025. We are confident that ACA members will find good value in exploring the innovative ingredients, equipment, and solutions showcased by our exhibitors at the inaugural Restaurant Asia show. One of the many potential partnership opportunities is with Singapore’s chefs and F&B operators to bring their products on board international airlines, adding unique Singaporean and Asian flavours to in-flight meals. We believe having ACA on board presents a unique opportunity to strengthen the link between the airline catering sector and Singapore's vibrant F&B community, fostering innovation and driving growth that benefits the entire industry.”
Fabio Gamba, managing director of the Airline Catering Association (ACA), said, "We are thrilled to collaborate with SIGEP Asia & Restaurant Asia. This partnership promises to greatly benefit our members by connecting them with the forefront of innovation in the foodservice and hospitality sectors. This collaboration not only enriches our understanding of evolving industry trends but also highlights our commitment to adapting and responding to the dynamic needs of today's and tomorrow's travellers. Together, we are setting new standards and shaping the future of airline catering by fostering a bridge between leading industry players across continents."
