Kolkata/IBNS: West Bengal Minister Shashi Panja earlier this week unveiled the logo of FAFAI's upcoming Silver Jubilee Edition Convention & Expo in Kolkata.

The FAFAI biennial Convention & Expo will be held for the first time in Kolkata at the Biswa Bangla Mela Prangan between the Feb 23 and 25, 2023 and will be supported by the West Bengal government.

Panja said in her address, "We really can't do without fragrances and flavours. It is so very ingrained in our society and in our history. The State is very happy to host FAFAI.

"It needs a miniscule amount of fragrance to give value to a product, but I think that itself is a game changer. I think we will see a wonderful Convention and Expo next year."

The event was also graced by Zha Liyou, the Consulate-General of the People’s Republic of China, and Daniel Sim, Deputy Australian.

"The entire fragrance and flavour trade is perhaps a niche industry, but is a very critical industry. This industry really adds value to any product that it touches.

"We hope that with this event we will be able to add value and showcase the immense potential and strength that West Bengal has.” said Rishabh C. Kothari, President of FAFAI.
