With Philippine Building Expo (PHILBEX), Iloilo Food and Beverages Expo (IFBEX), and Travel and Leisure Expo (TLEX) gracing Iloilo this July,
It is no surprise that PHILBEX will hold its next event in Iloilo. For years, Iloilo has been seen as a prospective economic powerhouse. Its ports and accessibility to various provinces in the Visayas, such as Bacolod, Antique, and Aklan make it attractive to many investors. It has also been a hotspot for real estate development and has sustained its demand despite the pandemic.
Iloilo tourism is also a big factor in its economy with Dinagyang Festival and different tourist spots to explore. With a refocus on tourism this 2023 and the launch of a new slogan, Iloilo hopes to capture the local and international markets. TLEX aims to provide a look into tourism in Iloilo and nearby provinces.
More than that, there are also many entrepreneurs rising in Iloilo with a focus on foods and beverages. IFBEX hopes to provide an avenue for entrepreneurs and creators to showcase the different flavors of Iloilo.
This July 13 to 16, you can visit these three expositions happening at the same time at ICON - Iloilo Convention Center to experience Iloilo at its best. Admission to these events is free, so pre-register now!
