Over 200 Philippine Exporters to Showcase World-Class Products at DTI National Exporters’ Fair 2026
MANILA, Philippines – July 22, 2026 – The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) officially opened the DTI Bagong Pilipinas National Exporters’ Fair 2026 on Wednesday, marking the start of a five-day celebration of Philippine export excellence at Megatrade Halls 1–3, SM Megamall, Mandaluyong City. The event brings together more than 200 Filipino exporters and export-ready enterprises, showcasing the country’s globally competitive products and services to buyers, investors, trade partners, foreign chambers, and the public.
Spearheaded by DTI Secretary Cristina A. Roque, the National Exporters’ Fair reinforces the government’s commitment to strengthening the Philippine export sector by providing local businesses with greater market access, business matching opportunities, and increased visibility. The event serves as a strategic platform for exporters to connect with institutional buyers, explore new international markets, and demonstrate the innovation and quality that have made Philippine products competitive on the global stage.
The opening ceremony was hosted by award-winning broadcast journalist Karen Davila, who welcomed guests from government, industry, and the business community to one of the country’s largest export promotion events. Her presence highlighted the significance of the fair as a national initiative to promote Filipino entrepreneurship and encourage greater support for Philippine-made products.
This year’s exhibition features six major export categories: Philippine Flavors (Food and Beverage), Philippine Threads (Fashion and Textile), Philippine Living (Home and Lifestyle), Philippine Creativity and Innovation (Technology, Creative, and Emerging Industries), Philippine Wellness (Beauty, Personal Care, and Health), and Philippine Export-Ready Companies. Visitors can also explore dedicated showcase areas featuring Halal-certified products, coconut-based products, and rising Philippine export stars such as ube, pili, and calamansi, reflecting the country’s rich agricultural resources and growing international market potential.
With the theme “Navigating Uncertainties and Seizing Opportunities,” the fair offers more than an exhibition. Throughout the week, attendees can participate in Usapang Exports learning sessions, business consultations, networking activities, product showcases, cooking demonstrations, and business pitching events. These activities are designed to equip exporters with practical knowledge, strengthen industry partnerships, and help Philippine enterprises expand into new global markets despite evolving trade challenges.
The DTI National Exporters’ Fair 2026 runs until July 26, 2026, inviting entrepreneurs, exporters, buyers, investors, and consumers to discover world-class Philippine export products, engage with industry leaders, and celebrate the innovation, resilience, and craftsmanship that continue to position the Philippines as a competitive player in the global marketplace.
