SM Retail returns to the spotlight as the Diamond Sponsor at the 31^st National Retail Conference and Expo (NRCE), happening from July 31 to Aug. 1, 2025, at the SMX Convention Center, Pasay City. As the country’s most anticipated retail industry gathering, the NRCE brings together thought leaders, innovators, and stakeholders from across the retail landscape — including mall developers, suppliers, and brand owners.

This year’s theme, “Retail Game Changers,” sets the stage for bold conversations on leadership, innovation, and resilience in today’s ever-evolving market. Fittingly, SM Retail embodies this spirit, not just as a key participant, but as one of the driving forces behind the transformation of Philippine retail.
