CebuCON ‘not just for construction professionals’

CebuCON is back for its 26th year, bringing together the best and latest products in construction.

It will have its final day today in the Sky Hall and Mountain Wing Atrium of SM Seaside City Cebu.

Started in 1993, Construction Show Cebu or more commonly known as CebuCON is an annual construction needs exhibit organized by L.A. Ducut & Company, Inc. It is now on its 26th year and bigger than ever with over 50 exhibitors and more than 500 products available.

Part of CebuCON’s thrust is to champion innovation and showcase new products. “Like fashion, construction also has trends that change every season. This is what the market looks for and this is what they need in building their projects, which is why we continue to bring relevant and important products to the industry every year through CebuCON,” said managing director Lilibeth Abais of L.A. Ducut and Company.

“CebuCON is not just for construction professionals but also for the general public. Here at CebuCON, we provide the first nail to the last nail, which means everything you’ll need in construction from start to finish is here,” Abais added.

Every year, 40-60 percent of its exhibitors are new companies or products. Although there are a few who have participated in CebuCON year after year, guests can expect new additions with every run. Aside from local companies, CebuCON also carries foreign brands and products from countries like Thailand, Finland and South Korea.

Last year’s CebuCON drew an estimated 15,000 people. This year, L.A. Ducut expects 20,000 people.
