JKN Medan serves more than 80 types of authentic dishes from various regions in Indonesia, making it an unforgettable culinary experience for visitors. Apart from that, this event also aims to increase public awareness and interest in MSME products through the MSME Digital Market (PaDi).

MSMEs involved in JKN are part of Rumah BUMN, a forum for MSME actors who are coached by state companies to facilitate them to advance to class.
Apart from tasting typical Indonesian culinary delights, JKN Medan visitors are also pampered with various interesting entertainment, such as musical performances from national artists Idgitaf and Stevan Pasaribu, traditional Batak Karo music performances, cooking demonstrations by Chef Yulita Master Chef Indonesia Season 5, Barista Competition, Cosplay Exhibition, and Talkshow with national entrepreneur Gufron Syarif CEO & Founder of Haus Indonesia.
