    Kenya will host the Gulfood360 Africa Expo, a landmark food and agribusiness event that is expected to position the country as a strategic hub for agriculture, food processing, and international trade across Africa. The expo will bring together global buyers, producers, processors, investors, and policymakers from across the food and agriculture ecosystem. Building on the global Gulfood brand, Gulfood360 Africa aims to spotlight Africa’s agricultural potential, promote value addition, and facilitate direct market access for African producers and exporters. Kenyan agribusinesses, cooperatives, and SMEs are expected to benefit from exposure to international buyers and partners seeking reliable food supply chains from the continent. The event is aligned with Kenya’s broader agenda on agro-industrialisation, food security, and export diversification. It also supports government and private-sector efforts to shift Africa away from raw commodity exports toward processed and branded food products with higher economic value. In addition to exhibitions, the expo will feature policy dialogues, investment forums, and B2B matchmaking sessions designed to convert interest into tangible trade deals and long-term partnerships. Why This Matters Hosting Gulfood360 Africa places Kenya at the centre of Africa’s evolving food trade architecture. At a time when global food supply chains are being restructured, Kenya’s role as a regional logistics and production hub becomes increasingly strategic. For SMEs and agribusinesses, the expo offers a rare platform to access global markets without leaving the continent, reducing barriers to entry and accelerating export readiness.
