“Hostex Cape is ideally timed to assist the industry in meeting the demands of the 2010 tourists, giving visitors a one-stop destination from which to source the products and services to ensure they are able to do so. This year's exhibition will expose visitors to new products and trends that will better enable them to provide a world-class service to the influx of tourists that the hospitality industry will be greeting when the soccer begins in June,” says Lynn Chamier, exhibitor director of Hostex Cape.

One of the highlights of the last day will be the Unilever Foodsolutions “By Invitation Only” competition, which will see six of South Africa's top chefs, handpicked for their culinary talent, reputation and contribution to the industry, preparing a three-course meal from a mystery basket of ingredients. With a cash prize of R40 000, this is one of South Africa's most prestigious competitions, and takes places on Wednesday 10 March from 11am on the Mac Brothers stand.
