Challenge
The Hong Kong Wine & Dine Expo is a major annual culinary event held at the Central Harbourfront, bringing together top chefs, award-winning restaurants, and global wine producers for a 4 day celebration of food and drink. Returning after a 2 year break, the 2024 edition demanded precise coordination and flawless execution to deliver high-quality hospitality experiences across multiple premium zones.
With key equipment still deployed at other international events and onsite utilities delayed, the Lowe Rental team faced tight timelines and complex logistical challenges in ensuring all catering environments were operational and event-ready on schedule.
Rental Solution
Lowe Rental delivered a fully managed, end-to-end rental service under exceptionally tight timelines. Working closely with event organisers and vendors, the team coordinated equipment requirements and delivery schedules to meet immovable deadlines.
We deployed our best-in-class refrigeration and catering equipment to ensuree both performance and presentation standards were met, while onsite technicians worked side by side with chefs and contractors to keep operations running smoothly throughout the 4 day festival. This agile, service-driven approach enabled Lowe Rental to overcome logistical constraints, maintain reliability under pressure, and deliver a premium hospitality experience across all zones.
