The exhibitor recruitment has opened for the “Macao Featured Products Zone” of the 2026 Guangdong & Macao Branded Products Fair at The Venetian Macao’s Cotai Expo, targeting local SMEs (small- and medium-sized enterprises), according to a statement by the Commerce and Investment Promotion Institute (IPIM) yesterday.
The statement said that the fair will be organised by IPIM in conjunction with the Department of Commerce of Guangdong Province, which will be held from August 6 to 9 at Cotai Expo’s Hall A.
According to the statement, the event will feature six themed exhibition zones – the Guangdong Branded Products Zone, the Macao Featured Products Zone, the “Belt and Road” Products Zone, the Smart Senior Wellness Experience Pavilion, the Healthy Living Zone, and the New Gourmet Tasting Zone.
The statement underlined that the fair will focus on the silver economy* and healthy living, with supporting activities such as fora, business matching sessions and experiential programmes to facilitate cooperation opportunities, adding that local SMEs can apply to join the Macao Featured Products Zone until May 26 through the institute’s online system.
The statement noted that the zone will cover sectors such as smart products for seniors, health-related goods, daily necessities and food and beverages, further adding that eligible SMEs may benefit from a preferential exhibition fee of 1,400 patacas per standard booth.
In addition, applicants must have been registered for tax purposes for at least one year, with at least half of their capital held by local residents, the statement said, noting that priority will be given to local manufacturers, representatives of products from Portuguese-speaking countries (PSCs), and enterprises with recognised certifications.
The institute said the fair will provide a platform for local businesses to enhance brand visibility, expand sales channels and strengthen regional economic cooperation, the statement added.
