The six provinces in the Bicol region continue to bring in a record number of local and foreign tourists for its cultural sites, natural wonders and amazing food. This bodes well for local entrepreneurs especially those in the foodservice and hospitality industries whom WOFEX continues to support through its regional show, WOFEX Bicol.
The government says the economy of the city continues to benefit from the recovery of tourism and tourism-driven industries. Food services and accommodation combined for a 50.6% growth in 2022 – a solid reason for WOFEX to keep coming back to bring more business and learning opportunities to the region.
This is the 18th year of WOFEX in Cebu. The WOFEX Nationwide campaign always makes a stop in the Visayas because of the vibrancy and dynamism of the F&B and hospitality industries not only in the island but in the neighboring provinces as well.
Davao continues to be the venue of choice for trade show and events in Mindanao. In 2023, more than one million guests came for tourism, events and business. On the 19th year of WOFEX in Davao, we continue to bring The Ultimate Food Show Experience to the region to help promote and support the local F&B industry.
Cagayan de Oro’s tourism numbers bounced back by 177% post-pandemic and its economy saw not just recovery but expansion. We are happy to be back in CDO this year as its position as the gateway and hub of northern Mindanao makes it an important stop for the biggest trade event on F&B – WOFEX.
WOFEX Manila 2023 exceeded every expectation and we want to express our gratitude to our exhibitors, partners, clients, industry friends and the many visitors and guests who helped make the event a runaway success. Thank you for the kind words our exhibitors had in describing their experience – phenomenal, worth it, amazing experience, good leads, very happy, we are joining again, to name a few. We are happy when you’re happy! See you in WOFEX 2024!
