Expected Boom In Tourism Predicted
The demand for innovative hospitality solutions is booming as Africa’s travel and tourism sector surges, fueled by a growing middle class and a predicted CAGR of 8.9%, or $731.4bn, by 2032 in the “bleisure” market. A recent report by Africa Outlook predicts Africa will be the world’s second-fastest-growing tourism region in 2024, driven by a resurgence in travel and investment. To meet this demand, the Hotel & Hospitality Expo Africa, in its 7th edition, is set to connect hospitality buyers with a wide range of global suppliers and brands.
“The all-new Hotel & Hospitality Expo Africa is the ultimate destination for the hotel and hospitality sector in Africa,” says Margaret Peters, event manager: food & hospitality at dmg events. “And as part of our commitment to providing more value to the African hospitality sector, the Hotel & Hospitality Expo Africa is excited to announce the launch of the interiors and fit-out sector within the main event, taking place in South Africa from 11–13 June 2024 at the Sandton Convention Centre.”
The event will connect architects, interior designers, and hotel and hospitality buyers with suppliers and brands, enabling key players to source the widest range of global products, connect with industry leaders, and be inspired.
