INTERNORGA 2026 has officially wrapped and what an inspiring, high‑energy five days it has been. As one of the world’s leading events for the hospitality, restaurant, catering, and foodservice industries. INTERNORGA once again proved why it remains the go‑to platform: Innovation, collaboration, and forward‑thinking concepts.
This year’s edition filled the vast Hamburg Messe with cutting‑edge exhibitors and a full plan from March 13–17, offering a deep look into the trends shaping the future of our industry.
Not only it revamped hall concepts like the new B5 innovation hub (home to the Startups & Drinks area, Future Food, and the “What the Food! by foodlab” stage), but incorporated thought‑leading conferences and interactive showcases. Agility, sustainability, and creativity were positioned as the driving forces of tomorrow’s hospitality landscape.
And in the middle of all this progress and energy, stood us: livecookintable® with a booth that buzzed from the very first minute.
A Booth Alive With Energy, Conversations, and New Connections
Our presence this year felt truly special. Throughout the show, our booth welcomed a steady flow of operators, chefs, designers, consultants, and long‑time partners eager to see what’s new at livecookintable®.
What we experienced was not just interest, but genuine enthusiasm. The industry is clearly ready for sustainable modularity at a new level, and our approach resonated deeply with visitors looking for agile solutions that scale alongside their business.
From early‑morning discussions about buffet architecture to late‑afternoon deep‑dives into operational efficiency, the value of face‑to‑face dialogue was unmistakable. Thus confirming, events like INTERNORGA remain some of the best spaces to learn what operators truly need, and this year did not disappoint.
Seeing livecookintable® in Action Across the Show
One our proudest moments, every year, is seeing how others choose to bring livecookintable® into their own storytelling.
This year, we had the pleasure to see our modular solutions as part of other company presentations, each using livecookintable® in a unique and inspiring way that aligned with their culinary identity and concept:
- MILRAM Food-Service with Heiko Antoniewicz
- Pattieserie Walter with Udo Walter
- AURA with Tobias Bätz, Marc Ullmann, and Maurizio Oster
- freakstotable e.V.
- Bullerei
- Keltenhof Frischprodukte GmbH with Max Forschner
Consequently, seeing our equipment not only displayed but actively used as part of chef‑driven storytelling is the highest compliment.
As a result, these live applications showcased exactly what modularity is meant to achieve:
a platform that adapts to every concept, supports every creative vision, and enhances every guest experience.
A Show That Reflects the Industry’s Next Chapter
Beyond our booth, the INTERNORGA 2026 delivered a rich program of events across multiple stages and forums. Attendees had the opportunity to witness the International Foodservice Forum featuring global thought leaders, become part of sustainability‑focused sessions like the Green Hospitality Conference, and even participate in specialised gatherings such as the Food Freezing Forum.
Furthermore, the show’s expanded equipment, hospitality zones and dedicated areas for newcomers and trend‑spotters, confirmed a clear direction:
Hospitality is entering a new era defined by flexibility, sustainability, and concept‑driven experiences.
For livecookintable®, this aligns perfectly with our mission. Our modular solutions, long‑term reusability, and aesthetic adaptability have never been more relevant. INTERNORGA reaffirmed that the industry is accelerating toward the exact values we’ve championed for over a decade.
INTERNORGA 2026: What We Take With Us From
To sum up, this year’s show, highlighted the following industry themes:
Operators choose modularity not just for flexibility, but for longevity: Due to economic pressures influencing purchasing decisions, buyers are seeking systems that can evolve with them, not become obsolete.
Sustainability continues to shift from conversation to concrete expectation: From production methods to material reuse and energy efficiency, operators are evaluating every detail.
Culinary storytelling is becoming increasingly experiential: equally important, the equipment that supports these moments must also be intuitive, elegant, and robust.
Partnership is becoming the new competitive advantage: From chefs to suppliers to designers, the best outcomes come from collaboration, something livecookintable® is uniquely built to support.
Looking Ahead: Building the Future of Hospitality Together
In conclusion and as we pack up from Hamburg while reflecting on the energy of the week, one feeling stands above the rest: gratitude.
Thank you to everyone who visited our booth, explored new possibilities, and trusted us as partners in their next chapter. Thank you to the chefs, brands, and collaborators who showcased livecookintable® as part of their own presentations. Your creativity brings our system to life.
Finally, thank you to INTERNORGA, for creating a platform where the industry can challenge assumptions, moving forward with purpose.
We’re energized, inspired, and already planning what comes next. Do you also have plans to enhance efficiency, modularity, or service flow? Let’s talk about solutions that move your operation forward.
