KFE
Due to a renewed optimism in the tourism industry, and subsequent increase instability to the tourism trade, Kenya’s food, beverage and hospitality sector has seen significant market growth which has made it a focal point for opportunity and investment.
The Kenyan Food Event (KFE) will be the premier exhibition serving the food industry across East Africa. With its inaugural edition taking place in March 2022 at the Sarit Centre in Nairobi, Kenya, this brand-new event will offer a pivotal platform for those in the industry looking for new suppliers, producers and services providers to enhance their business. Meet national and international brands, discover industry opportunities and network with key market leaders.
Co-located alongside the Kenyan Hospitality Event and the Kenyan Drink Event, the cumulative exhibition will make up three key industry segments to bring together over 2,500 fellow stakeholders and key members from the industry.
