CIHIE Beijing — China’s leading international exhibition for nutrition, functional foods, organic products and health technologies in Beijing

The China International Nutrition and Health Food Exhibition (CIHIE Beijing) is one of the largest and most influential events in China dedicated to the nutrition, health and wellness industries. As the flagship edition of the CIHIE series, the Beijing show brings together leading companies, scientists, investors, and distributors in the field of nutrition and biotechnology. Spanning 50,000 sqm, the event hosts over 1,500 exhibitors and attracts 60,000 professional visitors from 40+ countries. It serves as a comprehensive platform for showcasing functional foods, dietary supplements, natural ingredients, organic agricultural products, health management systems, and food science technologies.
CIHIE Beijing promotes the integration of the health food sector with modern science, combining business networking with knowledge exchange. In 2026, the show will once again take place at the China International Exhibition Center (Chaoyang) — one of Beijing’s most prestigious venues — and will include multiple thematic pavilions, investment forums, innovation awards, live demonstrations and product tastings. This event provides unmatched opportunities for brands seeking to enter or expand within the Chinese market, which remains the fastest-growing health food sector in Asia.

The themes of CIHIE Beijing reflect the global shift toward preventive healthcare and conscious nutrition. Key areas include functional and fortified foods, nutraceuticals, plant-based proteins, vitamin and mineral supplements, probiotics and prebiotics, sports and energy nutrition, infant and elderly nutrition, and organic agriculture. Exhibitors will showcase innovations in ingredient sourcing, cold-chain logistics, packaging sustainability, and bioengineering technologies used to enhance food safety and nutritional value.
Another core theme is biotechnology for health and wellness, featuring breakthroughs in bioactive compounds, enzymatic processing, fermentation, and gene-based nutrition. Organic and green products are also emphasized, aligning with consumers’ growing demand for traceable and eco-friendly food. CIHIE Beijing’s conference program includes specialized forums on functional ingredient regulation, global health food registration in China, and cross-border e-commerce for nutraceutical exports.
