HCJ - Hotel & Restaurant Show TokyoHCJ

Founded in 1973, the HCJ - Hotel & Restaurant Show Tokyo is a specialized exhibition focusing on "commercial kitchen and food service equipment," "tableware," "IT systems," "furniture/interior/exterior," and "food hygiene equipment" for the hotel and accommodation industry, the food and beverage sector (restaurants, bars, cafes), as well as catering services in hospitals, welfare facilities, and schools.

The exhibition attracts approximately 2,000 exhibiting companies and around 90,000 professional visitors annually for business negotiations. HCJ showcases Japan's high-specification, innovatively designed equipment alongside a wide range of international products.

It has evolved into one of the world's most professional trade exhibitions for the hospitality industry. In recent years, hotels across Southeast Asia—a global tourism hotspot—have significantly shortened their facility upgrade cycles, greatly boosting the hotel equipment sector and related trade. As a core hub for Asia's food service and hospitality industries, Tokyo holds a distinct advantage in hosting such events, best evidenced by the consistent participation of nearly 1,000 exhibitors and over 100,000 professional attendees per edition.

Due to the relatively low number of Chinese enterprises currently participating, those that do attend achieve highly satisfactory transaction results and favorable pricing. Most participating companies have expressed their intention to return. HCJ provides an optimal platform for exhibitors and visitors to explore business opportunities, consistently receiving high praise from industry professionals.
