Asriel Marketing Ltd., a cornerstone of Sri Lanka’s culinary industry, returns as the Diamond sponsor for the third consecutive year at the 22nd edition of the Culinary Art Food Expo (CAFE 2025), South Asia’s premier gathering of culinary excellence, and the largest food exhibition in Sri Lanka.

Scheduled to take place from 13 to 15 June, at the Sirimavo Bandaranaike Memorial Exhibition Centre (SBMEC), CAFE 2025 promises a dynamic showcase of culinary artistry, industry innovation, and sustainable food solutions – bringing together top local and international talent.

“This marks our third consecutive year as Diamond sponsor of CAFE, and we couldn’t be more excited. Each year, this event has grown in scale and ambition, setting new benchmarks for Sri Lanka’s culinary industry. We are incredibly grateful to the organisers, participants, and everyone involved in making this platform a success. With the momentum we’ve built, we know that CAFE 2025 is going to be the best one yet – a true celebration of talent, creativity, and innovation in food,” said Asriel Chairman Shiran Peiris.

CAFE 2025 will offer an immersive experience for both professionals and enthusiasts alike, featuring live culinary competitions, hands-on workshops, and masterclasses led by some of the most celebrated names in the industry. The highly anticipated “Battle of the Chefs” competition will see top talent go head-to-head in a showcase of innovation and technical excellence, judged by a distinguished panel of WACS-accredited international experts.

“Over the years, we’ve seen incredible passion and skill from Sri Lanka’s food community, and we’re honoured to be part of this journey. CAFE has always been more than just an expo – it is a space for connection, learning, and growth. We look forward to seeing the industry come together once again to push the boundaries of culinary excellence,” said Asriel Managing Director Dimuthu Peiris.

Beyond the competition, CAFE 2025 will be a hub for networking, knowledge sharing, and collaboration, uniting key players across the food, beverage, and hospitality industries. Asriel’s continued support as Diamond sponsor underscores its mission to champion culinary excellence, drive industry innovation, and empower the individuals shaping Sri Lanka’s vibrant food culture.
