The way F&B and manufacturing businesses in Indonesia operate is entering a new phase. Kitchen management, production planning, and online sales are now moving towards one interconnected system. This shift is in the spotlight at B2B Tech Asia Expo 2026, the first largest B2B business software exhibition in Indonesia, which will take place 1-2 July 2026 at AXA Tower, Kuningan City Grand Ballroom, Jakarta. <\/p>\n\n
B2B Tech Asia Expo 2026 comes with the tagline “The Dawn of Asia’s B2B Tech Mega Market” and is the only exhibition in Indonesia that focuses 100% on software and SaaS solutions. More than 3,000 decision makers from various industries attended to explore the latest technological innovations, from artificial intelligence, automation, cloud computing, to enterprise systems such as ERP and CRM. <\/p>\n\n
The exhibition area is divided into 10 dedicated departmental zones, designed so that each visitor can find the solution that best suits their business needs directly and efficiently. This format makes the exhibition feel focused, because each visitor can go directly to the solution category that is relevant to their role, from operations, finance, to marketing. <\/p>\n\n
For years, many F&B and manufacturing businesses ran their operations through several separate tools. Sales recording, stock management, production planning and bookkeeping often work independently. As a business grows, it is this coordination between tools that actually takes up time and opens up space for data discrepancies. <\/p>\n\n
The need for connected systems arises from here. With operations running on one data source, business owners get a more complete picture, from what’s sold, how much material is left, to how order flow is moving. This is the direction that was evident throughout B2B Tech Asia Expo 2026, and is the theme that unites many of the solutions on display. <\/p>\n\n
One trend that is clearly visible at this exhibition is the business need for systems that unify operations from upstream to downstream. Restaurants want the kitchen, tables and checkout to run in one flow. Manufacturers want planning, materials and online sales to be connected. This need is what Labamu answers through two solutions displayed at the exhibition. <\/p>\n\n
For F&B businesses, Labamu presents a Restaurant Management System <\/a>which includes split bill management, payment management, course management, kitchen management, and table management. This system is designed for independent restaurants, cloud kitchens and multi-outlet F&B chains that want to deliver faster and more coordinated service. <\/p>\n\n In practice, a system like this helps the kitchen and cashier teams work from the same information. Incoming orders flow directly to the kitchen, payment status is recorded neatly, and table management becomes more organized during busy hours. <\/p>\n\n For manufacturing businesses, Labamu Manufacturing<\/a> is here as an ERP solution that integrates ordering, production planning, material calculations, inventory management, warehousing, distribution, and reporting in one connected system, from planning to execution. This ERP ecosystem was developed together with the Indonesian Furniture and Crafts Industry Association (HIMKI) to answer the challenges faced by furniture manufacturers in Indonesia. This solution is suitable for manufacturing businesses, furniture brands, as well as distribution and trading businesses that want to expand their reach into B2B and B2C e-commerce. <\/p>\n\n With the entire process running on one system, manufacturers can know the true production costs before receiving an order, maintain material availability, and track each stage from request to delivery in a more measurable manner.<\/p>\n\n Apart from showcasing solutions at the booth, Labamu was also present on the main stage. Labamu’s two founders, Emmanuel van de Geer and Kamal Shivdasani, share insights on how ERP and artificial intelligence are starting to change the way retail and F&B businesses make decisions.
