2025 is going to be extraordinary as we celebrate our Silver Anniversary—25 years of food show excellence! From WOFEX Drinks and WOFEX Bakes to our regional shows in Cebu, Iloilo, and Davao, leading up to the grand event—WOFEX Manila 2025!
WOFEX
(World Food Expo)
WOFEX (World Food Expo) is the biggest and most effective food trade show in the Philippines. For more than 20 years, it has consistently been the most attended and most awaited food and hospitality event – the only one that covers two simultaneous locations, the World Trade Center and SMX Convention Center.
Through our WOFEX events staged around the country, we are able to show what we do best – showcase the best of the food and hospitality industry, offer opportunities for continued education, stage the only local WACS-accredited culinary competition – the Philippine Culinary Cup and provide the perfect venue for an exchange of ideas, services and entrepreneurial insights.
Have The Ultimate Food Show Experience – only with WOFEX!
The year 2025 will be an extra special one for WOFEX. We won’t just be celebrating our Silver Anniversary, but we will also be launching a brand-new show!
WOFEX Welcomes CAKE FIESTA Manila!
WOFEX is undisputedly the country’s biggest and most effective trade show on F&B. In 2025, as it celebrates its 25th year, WOFEX is launching a new back-to-back show.
The undeniable synergy between coffee and cakes make these two niche-shows a perfect pair. In line with this, WOFEX Bakes is proud to announce its partnership with Cake Fiesta Manila. This union is an exciting development that will surely add even more flavor and excitement to the show. WOFEX is truly happy to welcome Cake Fiesta Manila to the family for WOFEX Drinks + Bakes – a match made in sugary heaven!
WOFEX Drinks will focus on Brew, Bar & Beverages in a way they’ve never been presented before.
WOFEX Bakes, on the other hand, will showcase our partnership with Cake Fiesta Manila, a brand with a strong following in its field.
There is a lot the show has to offer and we invite you to join us as an exhibitor.
