From 24 to 26 March 2026, the campaign debuted with an exhibition to showcase the excellence, traceability, and versatility of European pork by providing an engagind immersive experience through live cooking demonstrations, product displays, and on-site tastings. Two professional chefs developed a menu to highlight the versatility of EU pork, using a selection of cuts, including Secreto, Presa, Belly and Ribs, demonstrating the products’ versatility in both traditional and modern culinary applications.

A key highlight of the booth was the live carving of Serrano ham from Spain. This attracted significant attention and provided an authentic introduction to European cured meat craftsmanship to Vietnamese and international visitors of the booth.

As the official kickoff event, participation at Food & Hospitality Vietnam set a strong foundation for the campaign’s upcoming activities across the three markets. It reinforced the positioning of EU pork as a safe, versatile, and high-quality product, while creating valuable opportunities to connect with industry professionals and expand market awareness.
