Food Expo Qazaqstan 2025 International Trade Show
USMEF participated in the 27th International Food Expo Qazaqstan-2025, the largest food and beverage trade show in the entire Central Asian region, held at the Atakent Exhibition Center in Almaty on November 12–14.
Food Expo Qazaqstan has been held since 1998 and has established itself as an effective platform for promoting new products, conducting market research, and building business relationships. The event brings together manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, retailers, and restaurateurs.
The 2025 Food Expo Qazaqstan was held alongside the 22nd QazPack exhibition, with more than 412 companies from 34 countries represented, including Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, Belgium, Vietnam, Germany, Egypt, India, Italy, China, Korea, the Netherlands, Norway, Turkey, France, Japan, and others. National pavilions were presented by Belarus, Poland, and South Korea, and collective expositions were organized by several regions of Russia and provinces of China.
The broad international presence demonstrates that Kazakhstan remains a strategically important market for the global business community. Participants included both major international brands and companies actively developing local production.
A total of 151 Kazakhstani and 261 international companies showcased their products at the exhibition, reflecting the growing interest of global businesses in the Kazakhstani market, which is becoming increasingly attractive to investors and producers in the food industry.
Notably, 193 companies — 47% of all exhibitors — participated in the show for the first time.
The USMEF booth was visited by current and prospective meat and poultry importers, distributors, retailers, and HRI market representatives from Central Asia and other CIS-region markets.
Over the three days of FoodExpo Qazaqstan 2025, the event welcomed almost 9,700 unique visitors from 51 countries.
