Chair welcome

It is a privilege to step into the role of IFSA Chair at such a pivotal moment for our industry. Following the celebration of CATEX’s 60th anniversary, our focus now shifts to the future – towards CATEX 2027 and the next era of foodservice, hospitality, and sustainable innovation in Ireland.

CATEX has long been regarded as the unmissable event for those shaping foodservice and hospitality in Ireland. Together with our valued sponsors and industry partners, we are building an event for 2027 that not only reflects where our sector stands today, but where it is headed – embracing new technologies, new efficiencies and sustainable solutions that will define the decades ahead.
