EU Pavilion shines at FHA-Food & Beverage Singapore 2025
The EU Pavilion at FHA-Food & Beverage Singapore 2025 was a vibrant showcase of Europe's finest culinary offerings. Held from 8-11 Apr at Singapore Expo, Asia's premier food and beverage trade show highlighted the European Union's focus on quality, sustainability and innovation.
The EU Pavilion opened with a ceremony led by H.E. Iwona Piórko, the EU Ambassador to Singapore. Bringing together industry leaders, culinary experts, and institutional representatives, the event set an exciting tone for the show. It underscored Europe's commitment to sharing its world-class food and beverage offerings with Singapore and beyond.
The highlight for the crowd was undoubtedly the daily live cooking demonstrations. Two renowned chefs, our very own Masterchef Inderpal Singh and Singapore-based French Chef François Mermilliod, drew crowds with their creative and engaging displays.
They showcased the versatility of EU-certified ingredients, including PDO (Protected Designation of Origin), PGI (Protected Geographical Indication), and organic produce, in both Asian and European dishes.
Chef Inderpal, celebrated for his modern Indian cuisine, reimagined traditional flavours with modern techniques, creating dishes that were both familiar and refined. Meanwhile, Chef François, founder of Singapore's Bar-A-Thym, brought the warmth of southern French cooking to life, using seasonal ingredients to highlight the natural quality of EU products.
These sessions bridging European and Asian culinary traditions showcased the superior quality of European ingredients, sparking interesting conversations among food enthusiasts and industry professionals.
Complementing the culinary displays, the EU Pavilion hosted a series of informative workshops led by European and Singaporean experts. Covering key categories like wine, spirits, cheese, olive oil, and meats, these sessions offered buyers and distributors valuable insights into EU food safety standards, traceability, and sustainability practices.
Attendees left with a deeper appreciation for what sets European products apart.
The EU's presence at FHA 2025 reinforced its strong partnership with Singapore, its largest trading partner in ASEAN. Supported by the EU-Singapore Free Trade Agreement (EUSFTA) and the newly concluded EU-Singapore Digital Trade Agreement (EUSDTA), the EU Pavilion provided a platform to explore new trade opportunities and deepen commercial ties.
The enthusiasm from importers, hospitality professionals, and institutional stakeholders highlighted Asia's growing demand for authentic, high-quality European food and drink.
FHA-Food & Beverage Singapore 2025 was a triumph for the EU, cementing its reputation as a leader in the global food scene. The Pavilion blended culinary creativity with meaningful business connections, leaving attendees eager for more. As Asia's appetite for European products continues to grow, the EU is poised to bring even more to the table at future events.

Easy Environmental Solutions Begins Manufacturing EasyFEN™ Units for Africa Following Initial Down Payment
Easy Environmental Solutions Inc. announces that the client sent the initial deposit and agreed to the $3.4 million modular EasyFEN order for Africa. EasyFEN units produce organic Terreplenish liquid microbial fertilizer, transforming waste into a feed that supports over 16 million people in Africa. Terreplenish liquid microbial fertilizer enhances soil health, increases crop yields, and reduces irrigation needs by up to 20%.WELCOME, Minn., June 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Digital Utilities Ventures, Inc. (OTC: DUTV), now doing business as Easy Environmental Solutions Inc., is pleased to announce that the client sent the initial deposit and agreed to the $3.4 million modular EasyFEN order for Africa. This milestone follows months of coordinated effort by the purchasing group to establish operations in Africa, ultimately securing their place in the production queue and signaling readiness to execute throughout the continent. 'This down payment is not just a firm commitment of a buyer to a seller to proceed with manufacturing and delivery, but even more so a significant first step in eliminating starvation for all of Africa,' said Mark Gaalswyk, CEO of Easy Environmental Solutions. 'Once deployed, the unit will transform local waste into Terreplenish—a powerful, organic microbial fertilizer that replaces expensive chemical imports and rebuilds soil from the ground up. It's a scalable model for self-sufficiency, and we plan to replicate this approach in multiple African countries.' The reason for this is that each single EasyFEN will produce enough fully organic Terreplenish liquid microbial fertilizer to fertilize over 1 million acres of African farmland. University studies indicate this number of properly fertilized acres is enough to feed over 16 million people! The EasyFEN will do so by utilizing the plant juices of locally derived green biomass and mixing it with the company's proprietary Terreplenish 'seed microbial inoculant' to then 'grow' the fully organic fertilizer in remote local African villages. This eliminates both the greenhouse gas emissions and the added expense from alternatively freighted conventional expensive chemical fertilizers from distant lands. Studies have shown an up to 2/3 cost reduction. Additionally, studies have shown that the Terreplenish will reduce the amount of rainfall or irrigation needed by up to 20%, thereby also providing a possible solution to the continent's drought-induced famines. Meanwhile, each EasyFEN unit running at 100% capacity will generate approximately $19 million dollars in recurring inoculant and technology revenue each year for Easy Environmental Solutions, Inc., delivering both measurable agricultural benefits and strong financial returns. Each EasyFEN™ unit is fully automated and designed to process up to 17,000 tons of organic waste annually—including food scraps, crop residue, and green biomass—into more than 2 million gallons of Terreplenish. Terreplenish is a 100% organic microbial fertilizer, backed by over 100 independent studies and more than a decade of field use. With just two gallons, it naturally delivers 45–60 pounds of nitrogen and 15–20 pounds of phosphorus per acre—improving soil health, increasing crop yields, and reducing irrigation or rainfall needs by up to 20%. It also functions as a natural bio-fungicide, supporting long-term soil resilience and sustainability across a wide range of crops and is a 100% organic microbial fertilizer, backed by over 100 independent studies and more than a decade of field use 'With worsening drought, rising crop prices, and over 20% of Africa's population facing hunger, this system couldn't come at a more critical time,' added Bakry Osman, Director of Africa Operations. 'This is just the beginning. We're building systems that deliver food, hope, and resilience—unit by unit.' With over 300 million hectares of arable land under pressure from climate change, depleted soil, and rising fertilizer costs, Africa urgently needs scalable, local solutions. A single EasyFEN unit can produce enough Terreplenish to treat more than 400,000 hectares annually. 'EasyFEN units aren't just machines—they're strategic weapons in the fight against hunger,' said Nate Carpenter, President of Feed the Famished, a subsidiary of Easy Environmental Solutions. 'Each gallon of Terreplenish restores dignity, fuels self-reliance, and chips away at the root causes of food insecurity. This isn't a short-term fix—it's a scalable, long-term solution that's designed to disrupt the status quo.' Easy Environmental Solutions has already delivered Terreplenish samples to the Congo and Somalia, with results exceeding expectations. These early trials have driven demand and opened new doors for expansion. The EasyFEN unit is expected to be completed and shipped to Northern Africa within 90 days.
