About MICF
Crafting Heritage, Inspiring Tomorrow
MICF 2026 is a curated international exhibition celebrating excellence in craftsmanship and artisanal industries. Organised by the Malaysian Handicraft Development Corporation, an agency under the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture, the event connects artisans, industry leaders and global markets — bringing tradition and innovation under one roof.
Serving both business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) markets, the fair pairs a living exhibition floor with an international sourcing programme, craft demonstrations, fashion shows and hands-on engagement for every visitor.
Our Objectives
MICF 2026 rests on four commitments — to Malaysia’s craft heritage, to the artisans who keep it alive, to the growth of the industry around them, and to the trade connections that carry local identity to a global audience.
Promote Heritage
