If you run a bakery, supply ingredients to commercial kitchens, or sell packaging to the food industry, the Bakers Technology Fair is the one trade event this July you should not miss. The 2026 Coimbatore edition runs July 1 to 3 at CODISSIA Trade Fair Complex on Avinashi Road, bringing together around 300 exhibitors across every segment of the bakery and confectionery supply chain.
This is a trade show for professionals. Pastry chefs evaluating new ovens, industrial bakery managers comparing automatic bread lines, ingredient distributors scouting new supplier relationships — all under one roof, with hands-on machinery demos running throughout the three days.
The fair has been running for over 11 editions across Coimbatore, Bangalore, and Hyderabad, and carries a 4.0/5 rating from 91 verified attendee reviews on 10times, where it also holds a Visitors’ Choice Winner designation. That track record matters: returning exhibitors and visitors already know what to expect, which keeps the quality of both the exhibitor list and the buyer audience high.

The Cluster Advantage: Five Expos in Three Days
The Bakers Technology Fair shares CODISSIA with four other food industry shows running on the same dates. This cluster arrangement is one of the more practical reasons to make the trip from outside Coimbatore.
The co-located events are:
- India Dairy Processing Expo (dairy processing lines and packaging)
- India Food Pack Expo (food packaging machinery)
- Food and Drink Processing Expo (broad food processing technology)
- India HoReCa Expo (hotel, restaurant, and catering supplies)
- Food Confluence (B2B food and beverage brands from 35 countries)
A visitor badge from any of these events gives access to all five shows. For a bakery owner who also runs a cafe or supplies to hotels, this means the HoReCa exhibitors are a short walk across the same hall. For ingredient suppliers, Food Confluence brings potential distributor and retail buyer contacts that would take months to build through outreach.
Who Should Attend
Bakery shop owners and chains: Whether you operate one outlet or a small chain, seeing live machinery demos gives a concrete sense of what automation looks like at different price points. The ingredient suppliers at this show also tend to offer trade pricing for buyers who register on-site.
Industrial bakeries and manufacturing units: The automatic production line exhibitors at this fair cater specifically to high-volume operations. Comparing multiple machinery vendors in one place over two or three days is substantially more efficient than travelling to factory showrooms separately.
Pastry art and cake decoration professionals: The decorating materials segment has grown across recent editions. Fondant suppliers, edible printing vendors, and mould manufacturers who exhibit here typically bring product samples and pricing catalogues specific to South India.
Ingredient distributors: Distributor and sub-distributor opportunities exist with ingredient companies looking to expand their South India reach. Bringing business cards and a note of your current distribution geography helps these conversations move faster.
Food technologists and R&D teams: The machinery demo area is useful for teams evaluating a new product category — seeing equipment in action before writing a capital expenditure proposal is more reliable than brochure research alone.
Entry and Registration
Entry is free for industry professionals. Registration is recommended before attending; walk-in registration is also available at the gate. The event is a trade show, not a consumer-facing food market.

A dedicated Baker Technology Fair Android app is available for event navigation, exhibitor search, and session schedules — worth downloading before you arrive to plan your time across the three days.
