IMPACT Catering is applying its large-scale food-service expertise to the specific nutritional needs of Thailand’s national athletes competing at the 2026 Asian Games and Asian Para Games in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan. The professional culinary team places a strong emphasis on preparing meals that meet athletes’ specific nutritional needs, supporting their preparation and physical recovery throughout the competitions.
Acharawan Suparngkarat, Director of Sales at IMPACT Exhibition Management Co., Ltd., said that with more than 25 years of experience in food and catering services for large-scale events, IMPACT Catering can accommodate catering requirements for 20 to 20,000 people per day, both onsite and at off-site locations. The company has expertise in managing a wide range of food service formats and can design and prepare menus tailored to the nature of each event, the number of guests, and the specific needs of customers. Its offerings cover Thai, Chinese, international, Japanese, and halal cuisine, supported by professional teams and expert chefs who oversee every stage of the process, from planning and ingredient preparation to food service. International awards further demonstrate its capabilities.
Most recently, IMPACT Catering was entrusted by the Sports Authority of Thailand (SAT) to provide food services for Thailand’s national athletes, teams, and support staff at Thai House during the 20th Asian Games in Japan, taking place from September 19 through 29, 2026. The team will continue providing food services for the 5th Asian Para Games 2026, which will be held in Japan from October 13-23, 2026. This assignment presents both a challenge and an opportunity to apply IMPACT Catering’s food-service expertise specifically to athlete care. The chefs collaborate closely with relevant teams to carefully calibrate meal planning around the competition schedule and athletes’ nutritional requirements, supporting their readiness throughout the competitions.
At every stage, IMPACT Catering’s culinary team pays close attention to ingredient selection, food preparation and cooking, quality control, and final checks before meals are served to athletes. Operations are carried out in accordance with the ISO 22000 standard, helping ensure the quality and safety of every meal.
“Our involvement in caring for Thailand’s national athletes reflects IMPACT Catering’s capabilities in providing food services that go beyond conventional catering. We design and manage food services to meet the specific needs of different groups, taking into account every aspect of each assignment—from meetings and seminars to events and occasions requiring specialized food services. Our goal is to create a positive experience and support our clients’ readiness through every meal,” said Acharawan.
Jakri Rujirat, Director of Food and Beverage at IMPACT Exhibition Management Co., Ltd., added that as the person overseeing the chef team, this assignment represents a way of sending encouragement from Thailand to Japan through the flavors and nutritional value of food. The chefs work closely with relevant teams, from selecting quality ingredients to refining cooking processes to meet specific requirements while retaining the authentic Thai flavors that appeal to Thai athletes. This helps ease fatigue and stress among Thailand’s national athletes.
