About this Event

SPILL THE BEANS- VOL6, PETFOOD & PETCARE EVENT

Brand Engagement & Events Platform


At our core, we deliver dynamic events that celebrate and support brands from all ethnic backgrounds.

We believe in the power of inclusivity and representation, and we are committed to helping brands connect meaningfully with diverse audiences across the FMCG landscape.


We serve as a bridge between emerging and established brands and key stakeholders within the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry, including supermarket buyers, investors, and corporate partners. Our mission is to expand access, increase visibility, and foster inclusive business networks that lead to commercial success.


Through our flagship initiative, Spill the Beans, we have created a vibrant and collaborative platform that brings together a wide spectrum of industry professionals: brand owners, retailers, foodservice providers, hospitality leaders, investors, and sponsors. These events are more than just exhibitions, they are immersive, opportunity-driven experiences designed to drive tangible business outcomes.

  • Brand Showcases & Exhibitions: An opportunity for brands to showcase their products and engage directly with decision-makers across retail and investment communities.

  • Pitch Opportunities: Brands can pitch in front of a "Dragons’ Den"-style panel comprising industry experts and investors, with the potential for live listing agreements or investment offers.

  • Corporate & Retail Engagement: The event has experienced significant growth since its inception, now drawing major retailers, corporations, and high-profile sponsors who recognize the value of diverse and innovative product offerings
