Philippine food firms report $28m in sales at FoodEx
According to Rosvi Gaetos, executive director of the Philippines Center for International Trade Exhibitions and Missions (CITEM), Japan is the country's largest destination for fresh food.
"With the existing Japan-Philippines Economic Partnership Agreement (Jpepa), Japan provides an attractive and vast market for Philippine food suppliers to serve the retail, food service and manufacturing industries," he said.
"Through this participation, Philippine companies can benchmark and update themselves on the demands and current regulations of the Japanese market."
