The FoodPHILIPPINES exhibition was made possible by the Department of Trade and Industry-Center for International TRADE Expositions and Missions (DTI-CITEM), which aims to strengthen the position of Philippines as a leading source of premium, natural, healthy, and ready-to-eat processed food and beverages in the Taiwan food market. Exhibitors will be representing the Philippines’ premium products such as Coconut, Banana, Cacao, Tuna, and other healthy products.

“Our aim is to increase market share of Philippine food exports to Taiwan by achieving at least USD 22 million worth of export sales. For the longest time, Taiwan has been increasingly reliant on food and agricultural imports due to the country’s limited arable land and agricultural production. This factor enhances the market opportunities for the Philippines, to penetrate the Taiwan food market,” says Clayton Tugonon, Executive Director of CITEM, or the Center for International Trade Expositions and Missions.
Apart from DTI-CITEM, the Department of Science and Technology – Industrial Technology Development Institute (DOST-ITDI) will also exhibit the products made using the Philippines’ state-of-the-art food technologies and equipment.
