COCONUT PHILIPPINES

Considered to be one of the Philippines' most-produced crops, Coconut has been commonly used for food and household products. In this edition, Manila FAME will feature the other uses of coconut as raw material through its holistic program that aims to develop and showcase the non-food coconut commodities specifically in the Home and Fashion Sectors. In partnership with the Export Marketing Bureau, 15 brands will develop new pieces featuring Fashion and Home Décor items designed by the Design Center of the Philippines. These new products, along with the coconut-based products from 10 additional brands, will be showcased in Manila FAME’s Coconut Pavilion. This special setting aims to promote sustainability and spotlight Filipino craftsmanship and design innovation.
