Africa’s Premier Agricultural Stage Returns —
Bigger, Bolder, and More Connected than Ever
The 10th Africa Agri Expo, co-located with the 3rd Future Food Livestock & Poultry
Expo — 2nd & 3rd September 2026, Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania.
After nine successful editions that have brought together farmers, agribusiness leaders,
investors, policymakers, and innovators from across the globe, the Africa Agri Expo is back
for its milestone 10th Jubilee edition — and this year, it promises to be the most significant
gathering yet. Held in Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania, on 2nd and 3rd September 2026, the event
co-locates with the 3rd Future Food Livestock & Poultry Expo to form an unparalleled
convergence of agri-trade, innovation, and investment spanning the entire food and
agriculture value chain.
This is not a regional event with regional ambitions. It is a global platform anchored in the
world’s most exciting agricultural frontier — and it is coming at exactly the right moment.
Why Africa — And Why Now?
The African continent holds over 60% of the world’s uncultivated arable land, is home to a
rapidly expanding middle class, and represents one of the fastest-growing food markets on
the planet. With a population projected to double by 2050, African agriculture is not just a
development story — it is a global business opportunity of historic proportions. Companies
that establish a foothold here today are positioning themselves for decades of growth that
few other markets can offer.
Tanzania, in particular, is emerging as one of East Africa’s most dynamic agricultural
economies. With fertile land, a strategic coastal location, and a government actively investing
in agri-infrastructure, Dar-es-Salaam serves as a natural gateway for businesses looking to
enter or expand across East and Central Africa. The city’s port connectivity, improving
logistics networks, and growing commercial ecosystem make it ideal for forging distribution
partnerships, scouting suppliers, and launching new products into one of the continent’s
most promising markets.
“Africa is not the market of the future — it is the market of today. The
businesses that build relationships here now will lead the next decade of global
agri-food trade.” — Tahir Abdul Bari, CEO, TAB Group
What to Expect at the Expo
The Africa Agri Expo is built to deliver genuine business value — not just a trade floor, but a
living ecosystem of deals, dialogue, and discovery. Over two full days, exhibitors and
attendees have access to live product demonstrations and launches spanning crop
production, smart farming, irrigation systems, post-harvest technology, agri-inputs,
machinery, and digital agriculture tools. The expo floor is where manufacturers meet buyers,
where technology meets adoption, and where new market relationships are born.
Through the co-located Future Food Livestock & Poultry Expo, a dedicated zone covers
animal nutrition, veterinary solutions, breeding technologies, cold chain infrastructure, and
processing equipment — making this one of the very few events in Africa where agri and
food-livestock businesses can engage a shared, crossover audience under one roof. High
level conference sessions and panel discussions bring together industry experts, government
representatives, and thought leaders to address the defining issues of African agriculture
today: climate-smart farming, food security, agri-finance, and the role of youth in building
the continent’s agricultural future.
Grow Your Business — Exhibit, Sponsor, or Speak
The Africa Agri Expo 2026 offers every business a meaningful way to participate. Exhibitors
gain direct access to thousands of qualified buyers, importers, and distributors, with
dedicated demonstration space to showcase products and generate on-floor leads. For
companies looking to enter new African markets or deepen existing relationships, there is no
more efficient platform on the continent.
Sponsorship packages place your brand at the very centre of the event — from the opening
ceremony to conference sessions and networking breaks. Premium visibility across all event
touchpoints, logo placement on signage, lanyards, and digital screens, and complimentary
delegate passes make sponsorship a powerful brand investment that reaches a senior,
decision-making audience precisely when they are evaluating solutions and suppliers.
For organisations looking to lead the conversation, speaking opportunities during the
conference programme offer the chance to present research, share insights, or facilitate
panel discussions — establishing thought leadership, driving media coverage, and building
stakeholder relationships that extend well beyond the event itself. Whichever path you
choose, your association with Africa’s premier agricultural expo is a strategic entry point into
one of the world’s fastest-growing agri-food economies.
Marking a Decade of Impact
Reaching the 10th edition is no small milestone. Over the past decade, the Africa Agri Expo
has helped thousands of businesses forge meaningful connections, facilitated significant
trade deals, and played a meaningful role in raising the profile of African agriculture on the
world stage. The 2026 edition is both a celebration of that journey and a confident step into
the next chapter — with a broader audience, a larger exhibition floor, and the added reach of
the Future Food Livestock & Poultry Expo making this the most compelling edition yet.
