ProChile

New York – October 15, 2026 -- Chilean seafood exports totaled US$9.186 billion in 2025, with the United States taking US$2.918 billion, or 31.7% of shipments, according to export promotion agency ProChile. That makes the U.S. Chile's leading seafood destination, and ProChile is using a New York event to widen that footprint across food and beverage.

ProChile, which operates under Chile's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, will hold two invitation-only events on October 20 for media, influencers and industry professionals: a curated Chilean lunch and an afternoon wine and pisco masterclass. Both aim to present products already available in the U.S. market alongside new offerings.

Miami -- Wines of Chile will stage the first Miami edition of Chile Wine Fest on October 14, 2026, at the historic Alfred I. duPont Building, extending a trade event previously run twice in New York.

Twenty Chilean wineries confirm participation in Miami debut

Approximately 20 wineries from across Chile's growing regions will present premium portfolios, terroir-driven labels and heritage varieties during a trade session running from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., followed by a consumer tasting from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Julio Alonso, Executive Director of Wines of Chile USA, said Miami's strong Latin American ties and diversifying wine culture make it a strategic market for positioning Chile's producers and regions to trade buyers.
