Reminder: Broward County to host 10th annual Florida International Trade and Cultural Expo October 22–23
Broward County, Florida – This fall, the Florida International Trade and Cultural Expo (FITCE) is back with a massive event that promises to be bigger than ever. The expo will be held on Wednesday, October 22, and Thursday, October 23, 2025, at the Greater Fort Lauderdale | Broward County Convention Center. It will be the 10th anniversary of the event. Everyone can sign up for free, and registration is now open.
FITCE is Florida’s best international trade and industry exhibition, and every year it draws thousands of people. Organizers expect more than 2,000 people from other nations to come, including delegations from more than 70 countries, high-ranking government officials, business leaders, and trade agencies. The event is a one-of-a-kind chance for importers, exporters, and entrepreneurs to meet and explore global opportunities.
This year’s subject is “Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Global Procurement,” which shows how technology is becoming more important in international trade. There are educational lectures, panel discussions, and workshops in the program that are meant to show how trends are changing global markets. People will be able to network and grow their businesses at the World Expo Marketplace, matchmaking sessions, and country pavilions.
FITCE celebrates culture as well as trade. Guests will see fashion, art, food, and performances that show off Broward County’s diverse community and ties throughout the world. The Sustainable, Agro, Fashion & Tech Week (SAFT) fashion show, cultural immersion events, and live exhibitions are some of the best parts.
“FITCE is a premier event in Broward County for which I am proud to champion,” said Alexandra P. Davis, Broward County Commissioner (District 7) and FITCE Representative for the Broward County Commission. “FITCE participants gain unprecedented access to industry leaders, international delegations, and key decision-makers actively engaged in international trade along with the opportunity to experience global food, culture, and shopping.”
“We are very excited to celebrate our 10th Anniversary of FITCE that has been well-known for its impact and ability to deliver economic development resources, global networking opportunities, and award-winning panels to attendees over the past decade,” said Maribel Feliciano, Director of the Broward County Office of Economic and Small Business Development.
