From December 4-6, Coex once again organized and hosted the annual Seoul International Sourcing Fair in Hall C. First held in 1991, the event is the only exhibition in Korea for consumer goods manufacturing and distribution. This year, the event featured over 400 booths from 350 participating companies specializing in different products, such as kitchenware and cleaning supplies, but also in beauty, skincare, body care, and much more. 

Located in the Gangseo-gu district, Coex Magok Lewest is expected to bring new life to the MICE industry. The full-fledged convention center featuring a 7,352 sqm exhibition hall, 4-star hotel, and other meetings facilities has become the largest MICE complex in Seoul. With over 100 events already planned for 2025 and thanks to its convenient location just 15km away from Incheon Airport,  it has quickly secured its spot as a new landmark for businesses and exhibitors in the city and globally. 

From November 20-24, 2024, Hall A-D of the convention center transformed into a treasure trove of gourmet food items, baked goods, and all things delicious. With over 1,000 participating companies coming from all over the world, the event shone a light on everything new within the industry, from premium food products to innovative machines, proving itself once again as a must-see exhibit for all.

As the largest franchise-related event in the country, Coex annually hosts the IFS both in the spring and fall, allowing participants to discover and engage with hundreds of new brands and businesses each year. With up to 50,000 prospective entrepreneurs participating annually and consulting services present on-site, the event is not just a showcase; it is also an incredible hub for networking, building connections, and gaining valuable tips regarding the F&B sector and much more.
