Indian Restaurant Congress 2025 & Coffee & Tea Asia 2025 to Host Nation’s Biggest F&B Ecosystem Under One Roof

India’s $95.75 billion restaurant industry is undergoing a rapid transformation, growing at over 10% annually on the back of shifting consumer habits, rising urban aspirations, premiumisation, and a wave of food-tech innovation. Tapping into this momentum, the 14th edition of the Indian Restaurant Congress & Awards will take place from August 5–6, 2025, at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, this year, in tandem with the launch of Coffee & Tea Asia Summit 2025. Together, the dual-format event will bring more than 2,000 leaders, creators, and changemakers under one roof, offering a panoramic view of the future of food, beverage, and hospitality in India.

Organised by RestaurantIndia.in and Franchise India, and powered by Founding Partner, Cremica and Fuel Partner – Indian Oil, this two-day summit is not just a celebration of growth, it’s a deep dive into the ideas, people, and platforms shaping the next decade of dining and beverage consumption in India. Cha-Chi Communications joins as the official PR & storytelling partner, lending voice and vision to the conversations redefining food and hospitality.

Themed “A Global Outlook,” IRC 2025 will spotlight India’s emergence as a global culinary force from homegrown brands expanding internationally to international QSR players scaling operations in India. Through a dynamic mix of keynotes, panel discussions, and focused breakout sessions, the summit will delve into the future of dining with conversations on immersive experiences, phygital restaurant formats, hyperlocal growth, 10-minute delivery ecosystems, and technology-led kitchen models. With over 150+ influential voices from across the F&B ecosystem, IRC 2025 promises a rich, future-facing agenda designed to inspire and equip every player in the foodservice value chain.

The event culminates with The Indian Restaurant Awards & Culinary Innovation Awards 2025, honouring excellence across formats, regions, and categories, from legacy fine-dine institutions to delivery-first kitchen disruptors.

Making its India debut on August 6th, Coffee & Tea Asia (CTA) will serve as a dedicated platform for the fast-growing beverage ecosystem. It brings together café owners, roasters, tea planters, packagers, café-tech entrepreneurs, equipment makers, and baristas for a vibrant B2B experience of product discovery, tastings, demos, and high-value networking.

As Indian cities witness a café culture boom driven by Gen Z and premium urban consumers, CTA 2025 offers brands a chance to tap into the next big wave in Asia’s beverage economy from sustainable brewing and ethical sourcing to cutting-edge equipment and experiential cafés.

The event floor will be organised into four curated zones:

• ReStart – India’s hottest F&B start-ups and franchise challengers
  
  

• ReSupply – Equipment, packaging, and supply chain solution providers
  
  

• ReSoft – Restaurant tech and digital service enablers
  
  

• ReSpaces – Design, architecture, and real estate innovators shaping modern dining environments

With over 2000 premium attendees expected, including stakeholders from across India, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East, the summit promises unprecedented opportunities for business matching, lead generation, and strategic partnerships.

India’s food and beverage industry is evolving at an unmatched pace and IRC & CTA 2025 are where its future will be written. Whether you’re scaling your restaurant, disrupting café chains, or building the next F&B tech unicorn, this is where the most serious conversations happen.

As India’s food and drink landscape becomes increasingly experiential, tech-enabled, and globally influenced, IRC & Coffee & Tea Asia 2025 promise to deliver future-first insights, industry connections, and brand visibility for every serious stakeholder in the ecosystem whether they’re serving up street eats or premium pours.
