The agribusiness sector in Kenya is looking to secure partnerships and access new innovations in order to enhance food safety. The 10th International Trade Expo AgroFood-Plastpack-Paper 2026 aims to provide a platform for a diverse range of stakeholders to showcase their innovations, forge partnerships and explore emerging markets across East Africa.
Dr Carol Khaemba, Honorary Secretary of the Kenya Veterinary Association (KVA), stated that the event would bolster the professional and technical aspects of the sector. KVA plans to lead scientific discussions centered on issues such as animal health, food safety, animal welfare, disease prevention, and emerging technologies affecting livestock production.
Khaemba emphasized that healthy livestock are essential for food security, productivity, sustainable trade, and economic growth. AXAN Rashid, the event organiser for MXM Exhibitors, noted that the exhibition has evolved into a vital forum for knowledge exchange and business networking. The expo, scheduled for the following month, is anticipated to attract over 200 exhibitors and thousands of trade visitors from more than 60 countries across Africa, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
