Tourism Grading Council joins forces with HostEX

Johannesburg - The Tourism Grading Council of SA (TGCSA) and HostEX are collaborating for the first time.

The TGCSA is the only officially recognised quality assurance body for tourism products in SA and HostEX is Pan-Africa’s largest food, drink and hospitality trade show.

This partnership will see the two organisations combine their expertise to provide insights and contributions to this year’s edition of the HostEX trade show.
 
“TGCSA has a large database of key players in the hospitality sector, which will translate in HostEX receiving maximum exposure. We will make available key speakers and provide guidance and inputs into relevant topics for the free seminars taking place at the trade show," said Darryl Erasmus, chief quality assurance officer of the TGCSA.

"We are very excited about the partnership as it provides us with a great opportunity to yet again, engage our members and the industry at large, on the benefits of quality assurance."
 
Keraysha Pillay of Specialised Exhibitions Montgomery added that the trade show is a platform for the hospitality industry to come together, learn, network and showcase key industry products and services. The trade show has an attendance numbers of about 7 000 visitors and 300 exhibitors, who represent 27 countries globally.

"Attendees can look forward to an array of activities that include free seminars, culinary competitions, discounts on flights and many more. The partnership entails regular member communication about food and hospitality,” said Pillay.

Food and Hospitality Africa 2017 powered by HostEX will be held at the Gallagher Convention Centre in Midrand from the 7 to 9 May.
