Jakarta, April 14 (ANTARA) - The industry ministry estimates that the turnover of a light food expo organized by small- and medium-scale industries here April 14-17 will reach about Rp500 million.

Food and beverage products have become the community's source of economic power because they are able to meet the needs of the domestic markets, Azis said.
According to him, the product packaging system was categorically good, and most of the processed products at the expo bore household industrial product labels.
"It means that the drug and Food Supervisory Agency (BPOM) has admitted the UMKM) light food products have met the market requirements," Fauzi said.
Industry Minister Fahmi Idris in his written speech on the occasion hoped that this kind of food industries could step up their product competitiveness especially relating to the quality, cost and delivery in a bid to compete with those of China, Malaysia, Thailand and Japan.
