The Hospitality and Tourism Industry is set to shape the profile of the services sector worldwide, accounting for approximately 10.4 percent of the global GDP. According to the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC), the sector supported 334 million jobs in 2023, representing 10.6 percent of all global employment. The core Hotel and Catering industry is said to indirectly generate roughly 1.6 additional jobs in the related economy. The UNWTO projects continued growth, with the potential to provide up to 365 million jobs globally by 2030.

Hospitality, Catering, and Tourism (HCT) will remain among the world’s top creators of jobs, requiring a wide range of skills that provide our youth with a head start in their careers. Being the country with the highest percentage of youth, India cannot ignore the imminent danger of unmanageable unemployment if we fail to train aspiring youth for hospitality careers. Fortunately, the Government’s emphasis on skill education and the recognition of vocational education as equivalent or even superior to theory-oriented learning has helped.

Food Craft Institute, Visakhapatnam, as always, is geared for a fresh set of challenges and opportunities. We welcome sincere learners to make careers, not just earn jobs. If you LIVE TO LEARN, YOU LEARN TO LIVE.
