From the enduring legacy of traditional kopitiams to the explosion of world-class indie cafés, Malaysia’s coffee scene is thriving, with the market set to hit US$1.05 billion this year.
As major lifestyle brands blend retail with F&B, the sector demands a stage that reflects its growing global influence, driven by a younger demographic that views cafés as the new social hub.
To support this rapid expansion, the industry requires a dedicated platform that connects every tier of the supply chain. Malaysia Café Expo (MCE) enters its second year to fill this gap, evolving into a comprehensive one-stop showcase. By uniting equipment suppliers, artisanal roasters, and franchise concepts, MCE serves as the essential infrastructure for a market that has outgrown traditional trade boundaries.
Malaysia Café Expo, under MIFB, is proud to host the Malaysia National Coffee Championship (MNCC) for the second time in 2026.
Our commitment since 2025 has been to strengthen Malaysia’s coffee and café sector by providing a platform where talent is recognised, nurtured, and supported.
MNCC plays a key role in this vision by giving homegrown baristas the space to grow by refining their skills, pushing their creativity, and advancing their craft toward world-class standards.
For the café industry, the partnership between MCE and MNCC continues to build a more connected and thriving community of coffee and café professionals.
Malaysia’s premier food and beverage trade event, the Malaysia International Food & Beverage Exhibition (MIFB), is proud to announce its three-year commitment as the official host of the Malaysia National Coffee Championship (MNCC) for the years 2025, 2026, and 2027 as part of their strategic alliance with the Malaysia Specialty Coffee Association (MSCA). This partnership also marks the start of an exciting new chapter for MIFB, as it works towards introducing a dedicated coffee and tea-focused platform, “Malaysia Café Expo,” as part of its ever-evolving portfolio.
This strategic partnership underscores a commitment to nurturing talent and elevating coffee craftsmanship. With prestigious competitions such as the Barista Championship, Brewers Cup, and Cup Tasters Championship, the MNCC will culminate at MIFB 2026, showcasing the skills of Malaysia’s finest coffee professionals.
Together, MIFB, MCE, and MSCA are building a thriving ecosystem to inspire innovation, support industry growth, and celebrate.
MCE offers unparalleled opportunities for established brands, roasters, and café suppliers to position themselves at the heart of the largest gathering of café owners and managers, baristas, coffee enthusiasts, and hospitality buyers.
