The first World Beauty Association president was Tryny Marcela Yandar Lobón, with Gerhard Parzutka von Lipinski from Poland as executive producer and president of the production company Nowa Scena.[4]
Parzutka von Lipinski has been referred to as the President of Miss Supranational since at least 2017.[5]
The Miss Supranational contests began in 2009 and were held in Poland except 2013 which was in Minsk, Belarus,[6] and 2016, which was co-hosted with Poprad, Slovakia.[7] Mister Supranational also began in 2016, in Krynica-Zdrój, Poland.[8]
The World Beauty Association, based in Hong Kong, organized a rival Miss Supranational 2014 pageant in India which could not be held in person due to responses to the West African Ebola virus epidemic. It crowned one candidate, Jennifer Poleo of Venezuela, remotely, and without runners-up, and did not hold any subsequent contests.[9]
The Miss and Mister Supranational 2020 contests were postponed to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with Anntonia Porsild from Thailand and Nate Crnkovich from the United States to retain their respective titles until then.[10] 2020 was the first year that the Miss and Mister Supranational contests were not held since their inception.[11]
