Event director for the tradeshow, Nick Sarnadas, accepted the award on the show’s behalf and had this to say: “Acknowledgement by a respected industry association such as African Exhibition Organisers (AAXO) consolidates Food & Hospitality’s commitment to remaining the Pan African trade show of choice in our sector.”

A joint venture between ROAR and Exhibitions & Events Association of Southern Africa (EXSA)-llence Awards made it possible to divide the awards into two categories, providing recognition to the best organisers and exhibitors with the inception of AAXO - Association of African Exhibition Organisers ’s ROAR Awards.

By promoting participation in the African exhibition and events industry and recognising excellence in exhibition organisations, this prestigious awards event offered role players who contribute to all aspects of exhibitions and events a platform to showcase their portfolio of work.
