Expoalimentaria 2026, Latin America's largest food and beverage trade fair, kicked off on September 23 in Lima's Surco district. Organizers anticipate over 31,000 visitors and roughly 1,200 international buyers from five continents over three days. The event spans September 23 to 25 at the Centro de Exposiciones Jockey, located in Surco district.

This marks the 18th year of the annual fair organized by Peru's national exporters association, ADEX. Expectations are high for business meetings, with over 3,000 anticipated between exporters and visiting buyers. Peru's farm exports could reach US$15.3 billion in 2026, a record following last year's US$14.6 billion. The fair features a gastronomic zone showcasing Peruvian cuisine and a new innovation contest.

Exhibitors range from major agroexporters to smaller producers. Tickets cost S/100 (about US$30) per entry, with a five-entry package at S/400 (about US$119). The fair attracts buyers from across Latin America, Europe, Asia, and Africa, making it crucial for Peru's agroexport sector. Coffee, blueberries, avocados, and grapes have driven recent export growth, with blueberries becoming one of Peru's top agricultural exports in recent years.

Expoalimentaria connects growers with buyers who stock supermarket shelves worldwide, offering a unique opportunity for Peruvian exporters to meet international buyers face-to-face.
