This launch champions the significant and continued growth of the industry in Asia, and provides the restaurants with international peer reviews, recommendation and profile. We chose to appoint Haymarket Media to manage this important and high profile launch for us as they have 14 years of experience in Asia and local offices and event specialists in Singapore and Hong Kong.”
