Africa’s agriculture, livestock, and food processing sectors are entering a new era of growth and this September, the industry’s biggest players will gather under one roof in Dar es Salaam. The 10th Africa Agri Expo (AAE 2026), held in its landmark Jubilee Edition, will once again be co-located with the 3rd Future Food, Livestock & Poultry Expo (FLIP 2026), bringing together two of the region’s most influential trade platforms in a single, unmissable event.
If you’re a farmer, distributor, dealer, agribusiness professional, or industry decision-maker with a stake in East Africa’s agricultural future, this is the event you cannot afford to miss.
A Show Built on Scale and Substance
Numbers tell the story of just how significant this event has become for the region:
- 10,000+ targeted visitors expected on the show floor
- 1,000 food, livestock, and poultry-related companies represented
- 750 senior conference attendees driving high-level industry dialogue
- 125 exhibitors and sponsors showcasing the latest in agri-innovation
- 75 expert speakers sharing insights on the future of farming and food production
- 35 countries represented, making this a truly international gathering
This isn’t a local trade fair — it’s a continental convergence point where global technology meets regional opportunity.
What Visitors Will Experience
1. Access to International Innovation, First-Hand
Walking the halls of AAE and FLIP 2026 means stepping into the future of agriculture. Leading international companies will be showcasing their newest products and technologies — from advanced farm machinery and irrigation systems to livestock and poultry equipment, seed technology, feed solutions, and food processing innovations. Visitors get a rare, hands-on look at solutions before they become mainstream in the market, giving them a competitive edge back home.
2. Direct Engagement with Regional Associations
Beyond individual companies, some of the region’s most influential agricultural and livestock associations will be present and accessible. This is a genuine opportunity to build relationships with organizations that shape policy, standards, and trade across East Africa and beyond — connections that are difficult to make outside a setting like this.
3. A Launchpad for New Business Partnerships
For dealers, distributors, and channel partners, this event is especially valuable. With 125 exhibitors and over 1,000 represented companies actively looking to expand their footprint in African markets, AAE and FLIP 2026 offer a direct, face-to-face route to:
- Securing new distribution agreements with international manufacturers
- Comparing multiple suppliers and technology providers in one visit, saving months of outreach
- Negotiating terms and building trust in person, rather than through cold outreach
- Identifying exclusive market entry opportunities in Tanzania and neighboring countries
Very few platforms offer this concentration of decision-makers and suppliers in a single location, over just two days.
4. High-Level Knowledge Exchange
With 750 senior conference attendees and 75 expert speakers, the closed conference program running alongside the exhibition will cover the trends, challenges, and opportunities shaping agriculture, livestock, and food production across Africa. Visitors will leave with practical insights they can apply directly to their business strategy.
5. Networking at Scale
With representation from 35 countries, the event creates a genuinely international networking environment. Whether you’re looking for suppliers, buyers, investors, or strategic partners, the diversity of attendees means productive conversations are never far away.
