If there’s one thing Worldbex Services International has mastered over the years, it’s turning exhibitions into experiences. Known for its signature “Beyond Expositions” philosophy, WSI continues to prove that its events are much more than just showcases—they’re destinations. This June 10 to 14, 2026, the Manila Foods and Beverages Expo (MAFBEX) returns for its milestone 20th edition, and from what we’re hearing, it’s shaping up to be its biggest and boldest staging yet. Expanding beyond its usual footprint at the World Trade Center Metro Manila, MAFBEX is also taking over the Philippine Trade Training Center, signaling one thing loud and clear: they’re going all out.
For expo-goers know that when it’s a Worldbex event, expectations are never enough. Every corner offers something new, every hall has a different story, and every experience feels extraordinary. Staying true to its commitment to pushing boundaries, MAFBEX 2026 is also celebrating the partnerships that have helped shape the industry’s future. Among them is its long-standing collaboration with De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde, marking 25 years of the Young Hoteliers Exposition, alongside the 30th anniversary of the institution’s SHRIM (De La Salle College of Saint Benilde School of Hotel, Restaurant, and Institution Management) program. It’s a celebration of milestones and achievements—where accomplishments inspire new successes, partnerships grow stronger, and connections continue to create opportunities for the next generation of hospitality and culinary professionals.
These milestones are more than just numbers—they reflect years of shared success, meaningful collaborations, and a commitment to nurturing the future of the food, hospitality, and tourism industries. The enduring partnership between MAFBEX and the Young Hoteliers Exposition continues to create opportunities for students, professionals, and industry leaders to connect, learn, and grow together, proving that great partnerships only become stronger with time.
