The Philippines’ finest come together at the 2024 DTI National Trade Fair (NTF)!
Mark your calendars for August 21st-25th and head to SM Megamall’s halls 1-3 in Mandaluyong City. This flagship event by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) promises a treasure trove of local ingenuity.
Building on the success of last year’s hybrid format, the 2024 NTF takes things up a notch. Expect a dazzling display of artisanal and non-food products crafted from sustainable Filipino materials like bamboo, natural fibers, and native grass. Food lovers will find unique regional specialties, while those seeking innovative products can explore the Halal section,coconut-based medical and personal care items, and more.
But the DTI NTF goes beyond just shopping. It fosters connections too. Business matching activities bring MSMEs face-to-face with potential institutional buyers, creating opportunities for collaboration and growth. Themed pavilions like the Philippine Sustainability Pavilion and the KAPEtirya Coffee Pavilion offer focused experiences, while the Innovation and Services Cluster connects entrepreneurs with valuable government and private sector resources.
“The DTI-Bagong Pilipinas National Trade Fair is a testament to our dedication to empowering Filipino MSMEs,” says DTI Acting Secretary Cristina A. Roque. “Join us in celebrating local creativity and discover the best the Philippines has to offer!”
