Africa Food Show 2026 – Cape Town to host one of Africa’s key food and beverage industry events
From 10–12 June 2026, Africa Food Show 2026 will take place at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC 1) in Cape Town, South Africa. The event is positioned by the organizers as one of the most important meeting points for the food and beverage industry on the continent. The exhibition is aimed at trade professionals and will be open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
This year’s edition will offer an opportunity for producers, suppliers, buyers, distributors, and experts from across Africa and international markets to meet in one place. The organizers emphasize that the event is designed to combine sourcing, networking, and knowledge exchange, reflecting the growing importance of Africa’s food and beverage market.
Free talks and debates for the industry
One of the key features of the event will be its free talks and debate programme, focused on the major shifts currently shaping the food and beverage sector. Topics in the spotlight will include the impact of geopolitics on food trade, new areas of growth, retail innovation, and the latest ingredient and flavour trends.
The programme will include sessions such as:
-
Live Debate: Rethinking Ultra-Processed Foods
-
Digitalisation in FMCG Masterclass
-
AI & The Future of Food Innovation
The organizers promise discussions that will deliver both inspiration and practical insight for companies operating in Africa’s food and beverage sector.
A strongly business-oriented event
Africa Food Show 2026 is expected to bring together more than 350 local and international exhibitors and over 8,000 professionals from more than 60 countries, creating a platform for building business relationships, finding new partners, and expanding operations across African markets.
An additional advantage of the event is that it will run alongside Hotel & Hospitality Expo Africa, connecting the food and beverage sector with the hotel and hospitality industry and broadening the range of business opportunities available to participants.
Cape Town as a gateway to the African market
The choice of Cape Town as the venue is no coincidence. The city remains one of Africa’s key business hubs and an important destination for companies looking to expand across the continent. Africa Food Show 2026 is designed to be a space where global suppliers and African buyers come together around a shared goal: developing a more modern, innovative, and resilient food market.
