Inside LATTE Expo 2026, New Delhi. A B2B Gateway Created by ILACC

For many Indian travel agents, Latin America and the Caribbean have always been “admire from afar” destinations inspiring, aspirational, but often perceived as too complex to sell with confidence. Long flight routes, visa formalities, safety concerns, and limited on-ground contacts make agents cautious.

Yet, this very complexity is where opportunity lies.

When a client considers Latin America or the Caribbean, they are not just buying a holiday. They are buying expert planning, trusted partnerships, and risk-free execution. With the right suppliers and a focused trade platform, these destinations can become one of the most profitable and reputation building segments of an outbound portfolio.

This is exactly the gap LATTE Expo 2026, promoted by ILACC, is designed to address.

Why ILACC Created LATTE Expo

ILACC (Indo Latin American Chamber of Commerce) is the official promoter of LATTE Expo. With years of experience facilitating trade, tourism, and government-level engagement between India and Latin America, ILACC understands one clear reality:

Latin America and the Caribbean have immense tourism potential for India, but lack of structured trade access has slowed growth.

LATTE Expo was created to solve this problem not as a mass consumer show, but as a serious B2B trade platform where:

• Latin American & Caribbean suppliers meet high-intent Indian buyers
• Conversations move beyond inspiration to commercially viable partnerships
• Trust, credibility, and long-term business replace trial-and-error selling

LATTE is not an experiment. It is a strategic trade initiative backed by ILACC’s cross-border credibility and industry network.

What Is LATTE Expo 2026?

LATTE Expo 2026 is a B2B-only Latin American & Caribbean Travel & Tourism Expo, hosted in New Delhi, India, one of the country’s strongest outbound travel hubs.

• City: New Delhi
• Year: 2026
• Format: B2B-only, Hosted Buyer, Curated Meetings
• Audience: No general public. No leisure visitors.
• Focus: Quality business conversations, not footfall

The expo follows a curated hosted-buyer format, ensuring that exhibitors meet only serious, relevant buyers rather than casual walk-ins.

Who Exhibits at LATTE Expo 2026?

LATTE Expo brings the Latin American & Caribbean tourism ecosystem directly to India.

Exhibitors are from Latin America and the Caribbean, including:

• National Tourism Boards and Destination Promotion Agencies
• Government Ministries of Tourism
• Destination Management Companies (DMCs) and inbound tour operators
• Aviation and airline companies
• Hotels, resorts, boutique properties, cruises, and experience providers

Exhibitors participate through paid stalls or hosted formats, ensuring commitment and commercial seriousness. This structure attracts suppliers who are genuinely ready to build the Indian market not just showcase brochures.

Who Are the Buyers?

On the buyer side, LATTE welcomes curated, high-intent travel trade professionals, including:

• Indian outbound travel agents and tour operators
• Corporate travel managers and MICE planners
• Incentive travel specialists and event agencies
• Luxury, honeymoon, and destination wedding planners
• Selected international buyers aligned with Latin America programs

Some Indian travel organisations and state tourism bodies may also participate, adding depth to cross-market collaboration.

This strict curation ensures quality over quantity every meeting has business potential.

Why Latin America & Caribbean Packages Are High-Value

Unlike short-haul or mainstream destinations, trips to Latin America and the Caribbean are:

• Longer (often 10–14 nights or more)
• Multi-city or multi-country
• Experience-heavy and custom-built

This naturally increases:

• Per-booking value
• Scope for customisation
• Professional planning fees
• Margin on experiences, transfers, rail journeys, cruises, and upgrades

Clients seeking these destinations already expect premium service and are willing to pay for it.

Where Indian Agents Can Win: High-Potential Niches

Agents succeed faster when they specialise, rather than trying to sell everything to everyone.

Latin America and the Caribbean perform exceptionally well for:

• Honeymoons & celebration travel (once-in-a-lifetime journeys)
• Luxury & boutique travel (privacy, authenticity, exclusivity)
• Corporate incentives (MICE) (high budgets, strong recall value)
• Special-interest travel (wildlife, gastronomy, culture, wine, rail journeys)

These segments not only deliver higher margins but also generate strong referrals and repeat business.

Why LATTE Is Different from Other Travel Expos

LATTE vs Generic Travel Fairs

LATTE vs Europe-Focused Shows

What Sets LATTE Apart

Why New Delhi Matters

New Delhi and NCR remain one of India’s most powerful outbound travel markets, driven by:

• Frequent international flyers
• Corporate travel demand
• High-spending leisure and luxury clients

Travellers here are increasingly open to:

• Long-haul journeys
• Premium, experience-led itineraries
• Destinations that feel different from mainstream choices

LATTE’s location in New Delhi allows suppliers to tap directly into this demand while enabling agents to build confidence through face-to-face engagement.

From Meetings to Margins: How LATTE Creates Real Impact

At LATTE Expo 2026, conversations are practical and outcome-driven.

An Indian agent can:

• Discuss flight routing and connectivity from India
• Understand visa processes and realistic timelines
• Clarify safety, seasonality, and on-ground support
• Address Indian traveller expectations, including food preferences and comfort

Agents leave with:

• Ready-to-sell sample itineraries
• Direct WhatsApp and email contacts of suppliers
• Confidence to pitch Latin America without hesitation

That confidence is often what converts curiosity into confirmed bookings.

Why LATTE Expo 2026 Matters Strategically

For Indian travel professionals, LATTE Expo 2026 is not just another event, it is a positioning opportunity.

Those who engage early can:

• Establish supplier relationships before the market becomes crowded
• Build destination authority while competition remains limited
• Create signature itineraries competitors cannot easily replicate

For Latin American and Caribbean exhibitors, LATTE offers:

• Direct access to India’s fast-growing outbound market
• Serious buyers, not browsers
• A platform backed by ILACC’s credibility and intent

Final Thought

Latin America and the Caribbean are no longer “future markets.” They are emerging now.

LATTE Expo 2026, promoted by ILACC and hosted in New Delhi, provides the structure, credibility, and access required to turn interest into income.

For agents willing to move early, LATTE is not just a trade show, it is a gateway to long term growth.
