If you’re a business professional in Building & Construction, Beauty & Cosmetics, or Food & Beverages, mark your calendar. KoINDEX 2026 is coming to New Delhi this August, and it might just be the most valuable three days you’ll spend this year.
What Is KoINDEX?
KoINDEX (Korea Industry Expo) is an international B2B trade exhibition purpose- built for one goal: connecting Korean, Indian, and global companies to do serious
business together. Held annually at Yashobhoomi — India’s premier convention and expo centre in Dwarka, New Delhi — KoINDEX brings together manufacturers,
distributors, importers, and industry professionals under one roof for three days of sourcing, matchmaking, and deal-making.
What sets KoINDEX apart from a typical trade show? Government backing. The event is officially supported by the Korean government, specifically the Ministry of
Trade, Industry and Energy and the Ministry of SMEs and Startups — and hosted by Gyeonggi Province. For Indian buyers, that means every Korean company you meet
at KoINDEX has been vetted and endorsed at the highest level. This isn’t a pop-up marketplace. It’s a trusted platform.
Why KoINDEX 2026 Is One to Watch
The numbers from the last edition speak for themselves.
KoINDEX 2024 recorded over 5,900 pre-matched business consultations with a combined consultation value exceeding 420 million USD. That’s not foot traffic —
that’s real business happening on the floor. The pre-matching system ensures that when you sit down for a meeting, the person across the table is already aligned with
your industry, your product category, and your business needs. For 2026, the scale is only getting bigger. With 400+ exhibitors expected from
Korea’s most competitive industries, KoINDEX is positioning itself as the go-to annual platform for Korea-India trade.
Three Industries, Endless Opportunities
KoINDEX 2026 is structured around three core verticals, each with dedicated zones, exhibitors, and programming:
Building & Construction
From smart home technologies and architectural materials to interior design solutions and HVAC systems — this sector showcases Korea’s reputation as a
global leader in construction innovation. Whether you’re an architect, builder, developer, or procurement specialist, you’ll find suppliers ready to discuss direct
imports, distribution agreements, and custom OEM projects.
Beauty & Cosmetics
K-Beauty has taken the world by storm, and KoINDEX brings that energy straight to the Indian market. Expect Korean skincare brands, medical beauty innovators, and OEM/ODM manufacturers looking to partner with Indian distributors, retailers, and beauty entrepreneurs. If you’ve been looking for a way into the K-Beauty supply
chain — this is your door.
Food & Beverages
Korea’s food industry is booming globally, and India is an enormous untapped opportunity. At KoINDEX 2026, explore health foods, functional food products, food
packaging innovations, and more. Whether you’re a hospitality buyer, a retail chain, or an F&B entrepreneur, you’ll find Korean suppliers eager to enter the Indian market through the right local partner.
More Than Just Meetings
KoINDEX isn’t just a show floor. The event is designed to deliver value at every
touchpoint:
- Pre-Matched Business Consultations — Before the event even begins, the
dedicated sourcing platform matches you with exhibitors based on your
product interests and business goals. No cold approaches, no wasted time.
Just scheduled, purposeful meetings. - Industry Seminars — Domain-specific sessions give visitors deeper insight
into Korean market trends, product innovations, and go-to-market strategies
for the Indian landscape. - Live Product Demonstrations — See Korean products in action before you
commit to a sourcing conversation. Live demos across all three verticals let
you evaluate quality, functionality, and fit firsthand. - Networking Opportunities — With hundreds of Korean suppliers and
thousands of Indian buyers in the same space, KoINDEX creates natural
opportunities to expand your business network beyond the scheduled agenda.
