Innovate. Elevate. Lead the Way
Lockhart Catering Equipment, part of the Bunzl Catering & Hospitality Division, has unveiled plans to launch an exciting new foodservice trade show this year by the industry, for the industry. The Catering Innovation Show will take place on Tuesday 28th October 2025 at London’s Business Design Centre in Islington and will bring together leading names in the catering equipment industry with a focus on both light and heavy equipment.
In addition to over 60 stands showcasing some of the industry’s biggest brands, pioneering suppliers, and cutting-edge equipment, the event will also encompass a Live Theatre which will host exciting cooking demonstrations from leading chefs, expert-led stimulating debates and best practice advice around a number of topics including sustainability.
Mark Lombard, Managing Director at Lockhart Catering Equipment, believes now is the right time to launch a show dedicated to catering innovation:
“Exhibitions are an integral part of the foodservice industry. From a supplier point of view, they’re the perfect opportunity to showcase their latest products and innovations. For operators, it’s a chance to see kit in action and gain an in-depth understanding of key advantages before they make their investment decisions.
Beyond that, shows facilitate conversations between suppliers and operators about emerging challenges and priorities, helping companies cater to these needs more effectively for continued mutual success.
Whether you’re searching for state-of-the-art kitchen solutions, sustainable technology, or the latest trends shaping the foodservice sector, the Catering Innovation Show combines everything you need to stay ahead.”
Underscoring the event will be a keen focus on sustainability, thanks to the organiser’s Zero to Landfill commitment. This will mean no single use plastic cups on site (reusable cups will be supplied on entry), recycled lanyards, and stands will feature recyclable or reusable graphics rather than the traditional alternatives. Following the exhibition, Lockhart will receive a detailed environmental impact report to highlight success and areas of improvement for future events.
A dedicated website about the event is now live at cateringinnovationshow.co.uk, providing regular updates about exhibitors and keynote speakers, as well as a registration portal to grab your free ticket.
