Welcome to the CFB SME Market 2026!

Join us on Saturday 12th September at the Courtyard, C3 Centre, San Fernando, Trinidad & Tobago, for our specialized business-to-business marketplace created to help Trinidad and Tobago’s small, medium, and micro-enterprises (SMEs) grow through meaningful commercial opportunities.

Building on the success of previous CFB events, the CFB 2026 SME Market is a more targeted format that is intentionally focused on connecting Food, Beverage and other local SMEs with supermarket chains, distributors, wholesalers, and other corporate buyers actively seeking quality products. Thus providing a platform for these businesses to take the next step toward expanding their presence in the retail marketplace.

Who Should Exhibit?

This market is tailored to efficiently connect local suppliers and producers with large-scale supermarket and industry buyers. We are explicitly looking for participants who fall into these two main categories:

  1. Established & Looking to Expand:
    Producers who already have products on supermarket shelves but are looking to scale up and expand into new retail venues.
  2. Shelf-Ready (or Approaching Shelf-Ready):
    Entrepreneurs and micro-processors who have gone through the necessary packaging and labelling design, and have either secured or are actively in the process of securing local regulatory approvals such as the Certificate of Free Sale from the Ministry of Health’s Chemistry, Food and Drugs Division.

If you participated in our previous trade show forums, you are highly encouraged to return! This event is designed to bridge the gap directly between your product readiness and active supermarket procurement networks.
