The 4th Export Gateway to Africa, creating a broad trade and export network for Turkey’s leading industries and enhancing the trade volume between Turkey and African countries, will take place on October 16-17, 2025, at the global trade hub, Pullman Convention Center.
Bringing together chambers of commerce, sectoral associations, and businessmen’s organizations, the 4th Export Gateway to Africa Expo will host qualified purchasing delegations from sectors such as furniture, construction, beauty, cosmetics, agriculture, agricultural machinery, food and packaging, medical products and equipment, packaged food products, logistics, and foreign trade.
Beyond official authorities, many agencies are working tirelessly, while prominent economic unions of the African continent—including the Arab Maghreb Union (UMA), Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), Community of Sahel–Saharan States (CEN–SAD), East African Community (EAC), Economic Community of Central African States (ECCAS), Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), and the Southern African Development Community (SADC)—are actively engaged in buyer delegation discussions for the expo.
In 2024, the 3rd Export Gateway to Africa Expo facilitated more than 1,400 B2B meetings. In 2025, we aim to break this record. By participating in B2B meetings, you will have the opportunity to expand your export targets and achieve greater success.
