Marriott International is offering ambitious Shanghai entrepreneurs the chance to make their dream F&B concept come true.
The opportunity comes by entering the hospitality group?s global BANG! competition. With the promise ?You have the idea, we have the space?, Marriott International?is inviting ideas for F&B concepts that will reinvent a lounge at Renaissance Shanghai Caohejing Hotel and JAVA+ venues at Marriott Hotel City Centre and Marriott Hotel Luwan.
BANG! is on the lookout for ?passionate individuals with original, feasible and creative new ideas that reflect the F&B culture of the local authentic market?, said Ralph Frehner, Marriott International?s vice president, food and beverage operations, Asia Pacific.
The campaign made its debut in Asia at the JW Marriott Hotel Shenzhen in December 2014. It was won by Estella Pan, who recently opened a Tofu Boutique with contemporary versions of tofu recipes passed down through her family.
?We are now looking for similarly creative and original concepts in Shanghai ? with our biggest contest so far inviting concepts for three hotels,? said Frehner.
