Panama, March 10, 2026 - with a proposal that fuses the agricultural tradition with artistic innovation, the Ministry of Culture (MiCultura) officially opened its pavilion in the most important commercial display of the region: Exposer 2026. In this edition, we pay tribute to Panamanian coffee and place it as an export product and as a cross-cutting axis of the national creative economy.

The ribbon cutting ceremony was with the participation of the Minister of Culture, María Eugenia Herrera, and the General Controller of the Republic, Anel Flores De La Lastra, who visited the space that this year houses 14 outstanding exhibitors for their ability to transform the gold grain into high value added products.

The sample stands out for the versatility of the projects, which were chosen by their proposals, track and value aligned with the theme of this year. The 14 exhibitors have been able to carry coffee beyond the cup, integrating them into different industries: fashion and textiles, gastronomy and confectionery and the classic Spanish coffee cup. Thus, visitors can enjoy the coffee printed in a work of art by Jean Decort as a cup of coffee from the Sisu cafe and choose from a Gisha coffee or a Natural Catuay, passing by spicants, handmade boars, creams and more and candles.

) The space will be open to the public and to international commercial missions during fair days, offering tasting, product exhibitions and business wheels designed to connect local talent with global markets from the stands of Kotowa Café, Finca Panda, Boca'o, Cacao Blessings, Sisu, La Picon, Kiosco Creative, SpotCafé, Jean Decort, Gran Del Val, LéRida, Pape Ink, C & C Velas and Grupo Maito.
