East Africa’s premier agricultural and livestock exhibition returns to Nairobi this August, connecting global suppliers with one of Africa’s most dynamic markets.
Unlocking East Africa’s Agricultural Potential
The 9th International Agro & Poultry Africa exhibition will transform The Sarit Centre in Nairobi into a bustling hub of agricultural innovation from August 21–23, 2025. This specialized trade exhibition serves as the definitive gateway to East Africa’s rapidly expanding agriculture and livestock sectors.
With Kenya positioning itself as the “Lion of Africa” in terms of economic growth and regional influence, this exhibition provides unparalleled opportunities for both local and international stakeholders to forge valuable business connections across the agricultural value chain.

International Participation
The exhibition continues to strengthen its global footprint, with participation expected from 16 countries at the 2025 edition. This international presence reflects the growing recognition of East Africa as a prime investment destination for agricultural technologies and services.
Previous editions have featured exhibitors from diverse regions including Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, alongside strong representation from African countries. This cross-continental exchange facilitates valuable knowledge transfer and business opportunities for all participants.
