Feast of Flavors: 16th PH Food Expo returns this April

-

THE biggest and most comprehens­ive Filipino food and beverage show is back and is now all set to take place annually, making every year a delectable opportunit­y to showcase the best of locally sourced fresh and processed produce.

The 16th Philippine Food Expo is gathering over 300 food and beverage exhibitors, consisting of exporters, retailers, equipment and franchisor pavilions, at the World Trade Center Metro Manila from April 12 to 14, 2024, actively stepping up to meet the growing demands and emerging trends in the agri-food sector.

Organized by the Philippine Food Processors and Exporters Organizati­on Inc., the three-day event promises a thriving platform for informatio­n exchange, market opportunit­ies and the latest in food and beverage market trends.

Suppliers, manufactur­ers and buyers from the food and beverage industry will do well to participat­e and attend the exhibition that has assisted micro, small and largescale food processors, exporters and allied industry players in the country through incomparab­le sales generation, networking opportunit­ies and brand recognitio­n.

This year, the Philippine Food Expo continues its remarkable endeavor to bridge ties across the archipelag­o, partnering with the Department of Agricultur­e to bring 15 regional participan­ts and promote the nationwide Young Farmers Challenge and Kadiwa Center programs.

The Department of Agricultur­e’s (DA) annual Filipino Food Month is also set to coincide with the expo, which will serve as its media launch platform, enforcing DA Secretary Francis Tiu Laurel Jr.’s mandate of increased productivi­ty and modernized agricultur­e.
