Anuga: The Global Marketplace for Foods and Beverages in Cologne   This is probably the 30th edition or more that our keyman has participated at Anuga since his prime years back in 1989. This year, GCF International, again, never misses the chance to represent our innovative ideas through Thailand's tropical dried fruits. Introducing new products and ideas to fellow F&B professionals has been our pleasure. Located in Thailand Pavillion (Hall 11.3, H053), we secured this opportunity to meet up with our existing business partners, potential and new people over 5 days at Koelnmesse. Breaking the pattern from the past years, we have decided to bring our newly launched brand (NOIR'D) to the global stage at Anuga. Moreover, NOIR'D is also a part of New Product Overview 2025 by Anuga as well among 1,900+ submissions. We want to magnify the culture of Thailand's Street Fruits via the lenses of Thai Premium Dried Fruit snacks. We are the first to introduce the term of "Thai Culinary Fruit Snack". Let's date it here as of October 2025! You can find out more at our NOIR'D Landing Page where you will learn about the background of NOIR'D and all the social medias there! Besides, we also re-think our traditional dried fruit portfolio into more dynamic with Aromatic Spiced & Juice Infused series. TASTIER. AWESOMER. LIKE NEVER BEFORE.  Anuga has always been a fascinating and educative experience for every fellow in or out of F&B industry. Witnessing over 8,000 companies from over 110+ countries in one place is truly massive. Not mentioning over 145,000 visitors from 190+ nations. We couldn't express enough how excited and inspired we are to be a part of this global F&B showcase.   Alright, handing over to next major event of Thaifex-anuga, Bangkok from 26-30 May 2026. Stay tuned! For Cologne, See you in October 2027! ;)   #weareAnuga #NOIRD #DiscoveryofTastes #FruitsMadeFun Read full report by Anuga here

Thailand's Pineapple Situation: 2021 Outlook Following a supply stumble continuously in 2019 and 2020, the situation of Pineapple crop and raw material supply in Thailand is believed to get back on its feet in 2021 despite this year's volume is still far less than its peak years back before 2018. Pineapple has long been a regular agricultural product that supports local Thai farmers to earn for a living. Nevertheless, this economic crop itself is also a hollywood star on global stage being well known for its 'tropical-ness' through its sweet & sour juice and flesh which is being loved by people around the world. Thailand's pineapple is claimed to dominate world's pineapple supply more than 50%, export to the rest of the world approximately 2 million tonnes a year.  As the drought in 2020 hit the main agricultural area of Pineapple in Prachuap Kirikhan that occupies 50% of the country's Pineapple agricultural area, the crop area has been devastated and the output has dropped almost 20%, while making the price skyrocketed. Plus, the pandemic respectively affects another end of the supply chain which is the demand, market, and consumers, it is purely a demand-supply nightmare for Thailand's pineapple. Truly a massive halt for exporters, traders and manufacturers especially the canned processors.
