“Magkakaroon tayo ng food sampling, on-the-spot cooking demo, chefs on parade at iba pang patimpalak sa pagluluto. Let us support this by inviting others to be part of our continued growth in bringing together different food and beverage industries,” Alvarado added.

The BUFFEX will house various products that are proudly Bulacan-made like ensaymada, puto, pastillas, chicharon, pastries, bread, kakanin, vinegar, soy sauce, bagoong, hampers, and pillow cases among others.

Aside from food and product exhibits, the BUFFEX will also feature relevant talks from experts in business and marketing.

(PhilExport), Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry and stakeholders from restaurant and catering services and culinary schools among others.
