Malaysia’s F&B Scene Just Got Bigger: MIFB 2026 is Back

The Malaysian International Food & Beverage Trade Fair (MIFB) 2026 is making its return, this time with a sharp national focus, connecting the country’s F&B ecosystem like never before. Think homegrown brands, international players, and everything in between, all in one place.

Theme: “Future-Ready F&B: Powering the Next Wave”

MIFB 2026 builds on 25 years of industry experience, positioning Malaysia as a future-ready ASEAN F&B hub. Alongside the Malaysia Café Expo (MCE) and MyFoodTech, the platform links the entire value chain: from small local brands to global powerhouses, helping them scale, export, and stay ahead of regional trends.

More than just a trade fair

It’s a meeting point for SMEs, distributors, brand owners, manufacturers, marketers, innovation partners, and volume buyers. Expect insights, trends, and real business opportunities. International participation means Malaysian companies can benchmark globally, gather market intel, and sharpen their edge.

Buyer matchmaking that actually works
MIFB 2026 prioritises buyers actively looking for:

  • Innovative products
  • International partnerships
  • Cross-border sourcing

Profiles include retailers, supermarkets, cafes, hotels, distributors, airlines, cruise liners, and institutional buyers. Basically, if you sell, serve, or supply food, this is where you need to be.

Innovation at the core
MIFB merges MCE and MyFoodTech into one integrated playground for the future of F&B, covering:

  • Ready-To-Eat, Ready-To-Cook, Ready-To-Drink
  • Halal-certified products
  • Fresh, chilled & frozen seafood
  • Café ecosystem: coffee, bakery, patisserie, equipment, franchises
  • Tech solutions: kitchen automation, foodservice innovations

Spotlight on Malaysian talent

The Malaysia National Coffee Championship (MNCC) returns, in partnership with MSCA, to crown national champions and send them to the World Coffee Championships. It’s the ultimate stage to show off Malaysian coffee skill to the world.

Other highlights include:

  • Knowledge Hub & Live Theatre – trends, innovation, business insights
  • Halal Certification Workshop – all you need to know about halal compliance
  • Chef Table – meet, explore, taste, and do business with culinary innovators

Who should attend?
