Concepcion Industrial Corp. (CIC), the Philippines’ leading provider of home and enterprise solutions, officially returns as the “Powered By” sponsor for the 2026 Philippine Franchise Expo, held from April 24 to 26 at the SMX Convention Center.
Highlighted in this year’s participation is “The Carrier Air Authority Center,” the country’s first and only retail air conditioning (AC) franchise by Concepcion-Carrier Air Conditioning Company. Designed to democratize business ownership, the model brings world-class cooling solutions and expert services directly into local communities, leveraging Carrier’s legacy of over 100 years of global innovation.
The Carrier Air Authority Center introduces a dedicated avenue to support customers while complementing CIC’s established retail network. The model allows local business owners to become trusted cooling experts, backed by a tried-and-tested operating system.
“We believe the future of Philippine business is local,” said Phillip F. Trapaga, President of Concepcion-Carrier Air Conditioning Company. “The Carrier Air Authority Center is not only about service expansion, but about sharing our world-class operating standards and opening new opportunities for Filipino entrepreneurs to become true Carrier experts in their communities. We are committed to empowering a nationwide network of independent, thriving business owners who will elevate the standard of living in their own neighborhoods.”
