FILIPINO food exporters earned a total of $46.52 million at the recent food and beverage trade show Thaifex-Anuga Asia 2025 in Bangkok, and secured $8.13 million in confirmed and potential sales at TuttoFood Milano in Italy, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI)-Export Marketing Bureau reported on Sunday.
Some 22 companies represented the Philippine delegation at the “Taste of the Philippines” pavilion in Thaifex.
“By continuously engaging with Thai institutions and experts, the Philippines aims to gather insights that can be adapted to strengthen our country’s food sector,” said Maria Emmanuelle Burgos, commercial counselor of the Philippine Trade and Investment Center (PTIC)-Bangkok.
Aside from showcasing Filipino products, the Philippine delegation joined a seminar on advanced food packaging and printing trends, visits to Thailand’s National Food Institute, and market sensing activities at supermarkets, food halls, and a durian farm in Nonthaburi.
“Joining Thaifex provided strong visibility for the exhibitors and has opened up valuable business opportunities for us,” said Kenneth Ochia, marketing manager of KLT Fruits, one of the participating exporters.
