Africa Agri Expo 2023 is a very well-established event promoting Africa`s rich Agriculture sector and presenting international companies with an unparalleled way to explore the huge business potential of this historic continent.
The first Eldoret Show was held in 1925 and became the fourth branch of the then Agricultural and Horticultural Society of Kenya (A.S.K) after Nairobi and Nakuru. The Show ground is approximately 8 kms from Eldoret town and 10 kms from the Eldoret airport and is located along the Kisumu Road.
The GLOBALG.A.P. TOUR stop will take place in Nairobi and will seek to promote good agricultural practices, safe and sustainable farming, market compliance, access to national and international trade networks, and responsiveness to consumer demands.
The three-day event is also expected to steer conversations around expanding opportunities for Kenyan produce into untapped regional and global markets. Discussions at the conference will focus on major issues that are currently affecting the trade in fresh produce in both regional and global markets. These include changing pesticides regimes, implications of the lifting of the GMO ban on Kenya’s fresh produce export markets, testing solutions, harmonizing market standards for the benefit of producers and exporters and financing solutions.
The Cabinet Secretary in the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development, Mithika Linturi and GLOBALG.A.P. Managing Director, Dr Kristian Moeller will officiate the first day of the event at Safari Park Hotel.
Participants will also have an opportunity to make site visits to enterprises with a proven record of globally-recognized best practice in production and handling operations.
The conference brings together an array of industry leaders that includes development partners led by USAID implementing partners, sector associations including Fresh Produce Exporters Association of Kenya (FPEAK), Agrochemicals Association of Kenya (AAK), Avocado Exporters Association of Kenya, Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organisation (KALRO), Agriculture and Food Authority (AFA), producers, and a wide range of private sector players.
