New Delhi, India – August 2025 — The stage is set for India’s most anticipated F&B industry gathering as the 14th Indian Restaurant Congress (IRC) and the inaugural Coffee & Tea Asia (CTA) 2025 prepare to open their doors at the iconic Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, from August 5–7, 2025.
Curated by Franchise India and RestaurantIndia.in, these back-to-back business platforms are poised to bring together over 2,000+ stakeholders, including restaurant owners, chefs, café operators, F&B innovators, investors, and international suppliers under one roof for three days of insights, innovation, and influence.
A Legacy of Thought Leadership Meets a Fresh Brew of Innovation
The Indian Restaurant Congress, now in its 14th year, has become synonymous with excellence and forward-thinking in India’s foodservice sector. This year’s theme, “A Global Outlook,” reflects India’s expanding role in the international culinary scene. From global QSR chains scaling their India operations to homegrown concepts making their way overseas, IRC 2025 will be a hub of dialogue and direction for the future of restaurants, cloud kitchens, and hospitality ventures.
Adding a new dimension to the show floor is Coffee & Tea Asia 2025 — Asia’s only dedicated B2B trade and leadership show for the coffee and tea industry. Making its debut in India, CTA will bring together roasters, blenders, café owners, tea estates, equipment innovators, and packaging leaders from across the continent.
