Espacio Food & Service was founded in the year 2011 in order to provide a space for meetings and for business, and for bringing together companies, providers, public organisms and all the professional branches of the food industry value chain. The event, organized and produced every year by the Events and Convention Center Espacio Riesco of Santiago, is considered to be the most important food industry event in Chile and a reference point for Latin America. Expectations are that more than 20 thousand people will gather every year to find out about developments and innovations in area products and services.
