China's non-alcoholic beverage industry is expanding rapidly, with revenues expected to nearly double from USD 99.55 billion in 2018 to USD 196.46 billion by 2028, Meanwhile, Singapore saw a 33.2% increase in non-alcoholic sales across all demographics in 2023.

In line with the new generation of health-conscious consumers, FHA-Food & Beverage is proud to unveil a new Beverage Zone that showcases the latest trends and innovations in the beverage sector while providing attendees with a focused and comprehensive experience along with exciting new competitions, the "Zero Mixology Challenge" and "National Cocktail Challenge". Building on the success of the 'Fashion Drinks Competition' by leading Food & Hospitality China, the "Zero Mixology Challenge" has been tailored to align with local preferences, trends, and market dynamics, which promotes product innovation and advance new consumption trends that resonate with today's consumers.

Other new additions to the FHA Culinary competitions include the rolling out of the first individual segments of the competitions, divided into Individual Challenge Culinary and Individual Challenge Patisserie.
