The Department of Trade and Industry Region IX (DTI IX) officially kicks off the campaign for ZAMPEX 2026, the region’s premier trade and innovation exhibition, which is set to bring together entrepreneurs, industry stakeholders, consumers, and partners in a five-day celebration of enterprise, creativity, and innovation.
Carrying the theme “Evolve. Expand. Excel.”, ZAMPEX 2026 will be held on October 7–11, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM, at the 5th Floor Convention Center of KCC Mall de Zamboanga, Zamboanga City.
Now on its 12th year, ZAMPEX continues to serve as a platform for showcasing the best of the Zamboanga Peninsula’s micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), highlighting innovative products, emerging brands, creative enterprises, and locally developed goods with potential for wider markets.
This year’s theme, “Evolve. Expand. Excel.”, reflects the continuing transformation of local enterprises as they adapt to changing consumer preferences, embrace innovation, expand their market reach, and pursue greater competitiveness.
Department of Trade and Industry–Zamboanga City Office (DTI-ZCO) will facilitate the participation of qualified local enterprises, particularly MSMEs assisted through its various programs such as OTOP Next Gen, product development, Shared Service Facilities (SSF), and other enterprise development initiatives.
Through its active engagement, DTI-ZCO aims to provide Zamboanga City MSMEs with greater opportunities for product promotion, market exposure, business matching, and networking, while showcasing the city’s growing pool of innovative, competitive, and market-ready enterprises.
The public is invited to mark their calendars and experience ZAMPEX 2026—a celebration of the region’s entrepreneurial spirit, local ingenuity, and the continuing journey of MSMEs toward growth and competitiveness.
