AgroFood-PlastPack Exhibition 2025: Fueling Greener Kenya Farms

The 9th AgroFood-PlastPack Exhibition, set to illuminate Sarit Centre, Nairobi. From August 21 to 23, 2025, the exhibition will bring over 200 exhibitors from 16 countries to showcase innovations in agriculture, food processing, plastics, paper, and tissue, fueling sustainable agriculture Kenya.

Organized by MXM Exhibitors, the exhibition aims to connect farmers, researchers, and technology providers to tackle food security and environmental challenges.

Axan, Event Organizer at MXM Exhibitors, told Capital Business, “This exhibition serves as a bridge between farmers, manufacturers, investors, and researchers, rather than just a showcase.”

The exhibition will highlight eco-friendly solutions like biodegradable packaging, climate-smart poultry systems, and automated grain storage, addressing Kenya’s 30% post-harvest losses in crops like maize and beans.

With agriculture driving 33% of Kenya’s GDP and 66% of employment, the expo tackles economic pressures, as Axan noted: “Kenya is at a critical juncture—public debt is high, private-sector credit is tight. However, events such as the Agro-Food Pack can help to alleviate some of these challenges.”

Held with Grains Africa 2025, the AgroFood-PlastPack Exhibition anticipates 1,205 visitors from Kenya, Nigeria, Uganda, and Ethiopia, building on the 2024 event’s 1,200 attendees.

The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) boosts its impact by facilitating trade, vital for Kenya’s $7 billion agricultural exports in 2024.

The expo’s focus on sustainable packaging aligns with global trends, like Bangladesh’s 2025 Food Pack Expo, which showcased eco-friendly materials to reduce environmental impact.

The AgroFood-PlastPack Exhibition 2025 will feature pavilions from Germany and India, offering tools like biodegradable tissue and irrigation systems, crucial for regions facing ecological issues.

The World Bank notes nearly half a billion Africans live on less than $2.15 per day, emphasizing food security needs. The expo addresses this by promoting waste-reducing technologies.

The 15-session conference with 50 speakers will drive sustainability discussions, building on Ghana’s 2023 model.
