A New Virtual Event That Connects F&B Buyers and Suppliers

For the first time ever, Bar & Restaurant is teaming up with our sister group, Hotel Management to create Hotec F&B, a completely virtual hosted buyer event for the hospitality industry. With a combined 150 years of experience in the hospitality industry, this two-day virtual event delivers a wealth of data and expertise. And of course, an expansive network of senior purchasing pros and innovative suppliers. Hotec F&B is happening December 8-9, 2021, from 9:00am to 12:10pm EST.

For the last 20 years, Hotec Events has mastered the art of connecting hospitality buyers, designers and suppliers through live 1-to-1 meetings. During COVID-19, they pivoted to create the same opportunities in a virtual landscape. Hotec F&B will be run on their easy-to-use platform that mimics the experience of an in-person event (no hotel reservation required).

Through this software, you’ll be able to learn which buyers/suppliers are attending in advance, and review their companies profiles. From there, you can pre-select who you’d like to meet, using the advanced appointment system. This will create a unique meeting schedule, matching you with the ideal buyer/supplier partner based on your specific needs. Each meeting is a dedicated 17 minutes of 1-to-1 time with each buyer/supplier.

Previous Hotec attendees love the system. “Hotec Global was one of the strongest virtual events of the year,” says Robert Duban, Vice President Sales for Bryan Ashley, “The quality of the attendees was second to none. Always first-class.” Jason Phillips, Vice President of Phillips Collection agrees. “Hotec Global was a great success for us. We had wonderful meetings that I already know have led to immediate business.”
