MANILA, Philippines — Manila FAME will celebrate its 72nd edition at the World Trade Center Metro Manila in Pasay City on October 17 to 19. Since 1983, the premier sourcing show has brought together MSMEs from the home, fashion and lifestyle sectors to usher Filipino products into the international arena.

This 2024, Manila FAME will center on the theme “Reimagination,” celebrating the power of Filipino design amid the ever-revolving landscape of global trends and innovation. It will highlight how the country adapts to international trends and standards by translating raw materials using a combination of traditional and modern processes into functional lifestyle products.

Organized by the Center for International Trade Expositions and Missions (CITEM), the export promotion arm of the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), the three-day event will champion Philippine artisanal products that feature skills in design and craftsmanship.

Manila FAME’s post-pandemic comeback in 2023 generated a total of $6.6 million export sales. Over 250 exhibitors under the home, furniture, fashion and lifestyle industries attracted more than 4,000 local and international visitors.
